Amusing/Pleasant observations at IITK #5

Saw this on one of the entrance pillars as I was entering the library just now:



I remember having an earnest desire to help screen such documentaries for the campus people a couple of years back, but due to some reasons couldn't see it through. Afterwards, gradually, I resigned inwardly and gave up on it.

So, seeing this made me smile. Perhaps I was too pessimistic and thus underestimated our UG students' interest in matters not relevant to their immediate professional goals! Although, I think the number of people turning up for these documentaries would be the true indicator of their interest in such matters, assuming there's nothing more urgent to hold them back (e.g. quizzes, end-sems, etc.) or that they already haven't watched them or intend to, in future. No matter. To me, the fact that some group of people decided to take this initiative is in itself a shining star of optimism. :-)
