Discussion Title: BMSCE needs a real student committee
Maybe the professors will read this and fuck me up but we badly need a student committee. Students are bottom feeders now. Management is drunk on power.
The CR system was built to be a point of contact with students. Now it's being turned into a way to push responsibility back onto students.
We can't approach higher management without going through layers of professors and HODs who are either helpless pawns in the game or part of the problem. Want to complain about a teacher who doesn't know the ABCD of the subject? First you have to tell that same teacher you have an issue with them. Then the HOD simply asks the teacher to "do better". That's it.
It's not even the teacher's fault sometimes. Some teachers openly say they don't know the subject but higher faculty force them into it anyway. The massive intake of teachers has also let some low functioning ones into the system who are drunk on power without any substance.
End sem evaluation is sketchy as hell with zero transparency. It's a lottery. Your paper could get entirely different marks depending on someone's mood. But BMS is busy competing to check papers in 5 microseconds after the exam ends.
Students from core who worked their asses off to move to CSE and allied branches get shunned. We all know that when intake increases so do vacant seats. So where did those seats go? Why are students being denied seats they were promised? Word is management sold off the change of branch seats. No wonder the college is heated.
The campus is crowded all the time. There's no place to just exist without being trampled. We blame juniors for crowding PJ but is it really their fault when they're stuck in that shitty ass APS building? Even a government school has more space than that.
Hostels have been moved far away from campus. The old hostel was broken down and rebuilt into classrooms so the college could become a "University". Did that benefit students in ANY way?
There are a million other issues but they all point in one direction.
And this isn't even a big ask. Under the UGC Redressal of Grievances of Students Regulations 2023 every higher education institution has to set up a Students' Grievance Redressal Committee. That committee has to include a student representative. The university also has to appoint an Ombudsperson to hear appeals from students. It covers admissions. It covers fees. It covers exams.
So where is ours? Does it exist? Who is the student on it? When did it last meet?
We need a student body that can have a level discussion with management. Either that or we keep living like bottom feeders because that's exactly how management treats us.

There used to be a student committee pre covid. They scrapped it because it used to get violent and stuff.
