IS THIS PROFESSIONALISM?

Rush up…., it’s gonna become 7.45, a few guys can be seen hurrying on the roads with neatly pressed, full sleeves, trousers and reflecting polished shoes. Are they executives, IT professionals ….? Definitely not, they are students of some private engineering colleges in the city. When you pass out of the schools, you feel somewhat relieved of your uniform which you have been wearing for the past 12 years for an entire week.

Guys entering top-notch colleges do not feel the grudge. Students of some private engineering colleges are forced on to be in formal wear, there are also some colleges which stress the students to wear neck-ties in colleges saying that it is PROFESSIONALISM, seems really funny. College days are to be enjoyed and dressing according to one’s own wish forms a vital part of it. Students are even denied the opportunity of wearing even jeans as they have to attend the college for almost six days a week and on the rest day, they almost rest on the shorts and Bermudas.

Students studying at institutes like IITs and BITS do not have a dress code and don’t these institutes fare better in all aspects than these local colleges. Adding fuel to the fire, in the recent years which has been introduced in almost all colleges is an Identity card with a strap to be worn around the neck. It looks funky like a dog-collar! Students are also fined for not wearing them in some colleges.One day, these students are going to pact with software giants and MNCs where this kind of attire seems necessary. Even there, they are allowed to be in business casuals once in a week. But can’t they be choosers for these 4 years? I being a student of one such college also feel the grudge!

Hope this is definitely not PROFESSIONALISM …..
