In a surprising development, the MIT has issued a notice saying that 25% attendance at DeeTee is a must to be eligible to appear for the University examinations for all undergraduate and post-graduate students currently enrolled on the rolls of the institute.
The notice reads as follows:
Any student who will reach prior to May 1 of the current year, 25% attendance at DeeTee shall meet the requirements of mandatory attendance required to be eligible for the University examinations. Any such student may continue to attend the academic program on a regular basis, unless a written request to drop the student from the institute rolls is made by the parent, guardian or other person having charge, control of the student.
Any student of mandatory attendance age must by the rules of the institute regularly attend DeeTee whether publicly or privately or socially, or a combination of such ways not less than 25% of the entire term of the institute which the student attends. This does not apply to a student who has already obtained a diploma or received a General Equivalency Diploma, completed the DeeTee program of instruction.
Excusal from the “25% DeeTee Attendance” requirement can be granted by the superintendent for a student who gives a written affidavit stating that he will Fake his exploits at DeeTee everyday to drive the business of the institute.
A few students have already complained that the rules are unfair for those students who have been maintaining a 75% attendance all these days. They’ve started an online petition stating that the rules need to be changed as follows- “25% attendance should be made mandatory for all UnderGraduate students at DeeTee for each semester, failing which can lead to being barred from End Semesters.”
An MIT graduate was in concordance with the students who have petitioned for a revision in the rules. This is what Gokul Nupta, a mechanical engineering alumnus had to say –
I believe a 75% mandatory attendance, with 5 surprise tests comprising of taking 4 shots each time and sessionals in which you have to by heart the price of each item on the menu, would be the right way to go.
Not to forget the end semesters where you have to write a thesis on flirting, should be ideal.
PS: DeeTee is the most famous club of Manipal. It is also true that unicorn is the national animal of India. The above article is just a joke. It’s up to you what you choose.
