An Open Letter to the Vice Chancellor, Bahaudin Zakriya University Multan
To,
The Vice Chancellor,
Bahaudin Zakriya University, Multan
Bahaudin Zakriya University, Multan
Date: 18th February 2016
Respected Sir,
We (the voice of thousand students of Govt.
Emerson College, Multan) are writing an open letter to express our gratitude
for being the lucky ones experiencing the semester system and other awesome
experiments.
We were watching The Discovery Channel the
other day and saw a scientist experimenting with a rat. We somehow ignored the
imagination that came to our mind.
First of all, we congratulate you for taking charge
of BZU Multan as vice chancellor. It was a proud moment for us and an honor for
you. Ironically, our constitution was implemented on the same date.
You have revolutionized the education system
completely. There have been a lot of interestingly uncommon and unusual steps
taken by you in a very short span of time. We wonder why people greet Rajnikant
as the only different piece. For us, Sir, you are the one who can create Japan
in one day (if given a chance).
Let us start with the semester system. The
system looked very good for us. We thought that the pressure will be
comparatively lesser as it was in the annual mode but this bouncer seems easy
to watch and tough to play. We don’t know how we got through the first year but
we got pretty good marks. I just hope if we could remember anything we gained
from it apart from percentage. But we all are concerned about the marks only
and Sir, you have been very kind in providing us with that. When we reached
second year, our marks decreased a lot. When we reached third year, we got a
backlog which we are supposed to clear next year as there is no provision of
supplementary exams in mid-sem break. Hence, one year wasted (for few of us).
A semester that comprised of five months, gave
us syllabus after two months and while we thought that our semesters have
started, we saw the datesheet and before recovering, we saw the question paper.
Sir, instead of delaying the syllabus and reading list, delaying the speed of
date sheet release would have been little better.
We got no flexibility to plan and work on
extra-curricular activities but we do not care until you gift us those high
sky-crappers in our mark-sheet.
Keeping aside the sarcasm Dr. Amin Tahir, what
we all want to appeal is that your ideas and thoughts are very innovative but
they should be presented in a better way by proper planning and organization.
Giving your innovations a thought and engineering it in a way to gain mass
acceptance might be a better idea instead of implementing it rapidly.
You have introduced new scheme for BS
examinations according to which sessional marks will be 10 and final term paper
will contain 60 marks, which is unaccommodating for students. We request you to
not apply this rule for those students who are in final term of semester as we
are not mentally and emotionally prepare for this.
You are our saviour, Sir. You have the power
to re-construct the things or extract all the negatives and solve our problem.
We as students and as teachers are very uncomfortable with the current system
and there is no other person who can save us than The Prof. Dr. Tahir Amin.
We only have ‘hopes’ left with us and we hope
you will take this sarcastic appeal in a positive manner.
Sincerely yours,
Students
Govt. Emerson College, Bosan Road, Multan
