Life at Delhi college of engineering

"Those were the best days of my life"

These were just the words of a well known song for me in my college time. but now i really mean these words. Things change drastically when u shift from such a college pronounced as delhi college of enjoyment or delhi college of entertainment to a company. Replacing the word engineering with entertaiment or enjoyment matches perfectly for DCE. Life here is not only full of those bullshit study curriculam but with a lot of life experiences too.when a fresher come in the campus he is threatened by proffs on attendence strickness but as the time passes he come to know that its just a line that the proffs used in his first class to have good impression on freshers. I was among the most of junta who dint care bcoz all of them had come after a tough competition and now they want to see the different phase of life. Actually they have cleared the milestone upto which they used to hear from there parents that" just one year of study".Jjust one year of study in 10th board and then cool life. That one year dint end up there.It started again in 11th for two years till 12th board and then again after 12th for the admission in good engineering college. But now it was end of that one year and other phase which do not include those "moti -moti phy chem maths ki kitabeeee".

Life at college is exactly the same as in a normal graduation college but in a envelop on the outside its written "Technical". Means only that technical stamp was visible from the outside and that was sufficien enough to make fool of any big shot MNC's.

Coming back on he topic i will say that freshers are given very warm welcome(officially) as a fresher party. I have mentioned officially bcoz unofficially they have regular parties in the hostel name-"DP"(DCEites understand it better). Just after the fresher party one can see a lot ofposters and banners in the campus because that's the election time. Now suddenly things change, sr.s change there tone from harsh ragging tone to very polite and friendly tone to get the vote for his party side. Even the freshers are very anxious for the election because it does not matter which party has one there two parties are confirmed. one is the free canteen on the declaration of results of election and second is thanks giving party by the president. Free canteen means totally free for all and i really mean it.

Then season of Festivals starts starting from AIIMS ,IIT , LCR,and finally LHMC (DCE ka nara hai LHMC hamara hai).Now u can get an idea that in this busy schedule how would one get time to attend classes. In this fantastic curriculam suddenly they get shock when the date of End Semester announced. once again things change and now ghissuus come in limelight.Everybody get their registers photocopied believe me till the mid of engineering people start understand their handwriting better then their own. Now they know the subjects, they already know the teachers face but the problem which teacher face matches with which subject. U must have understood why i am using word "teacher face " because that was to early to learn the name of teacher to whom they have seen only a few times. but that is not an issue ,what does it make a difference whether u know the teacher or not because u have already got the weapons(photocopies) for the war. Finally some hit the target, some waste the bullet here and there, and some are really very smart that they hit direcly to teacher mindset and get the highest marks. Its miracle for the ghisssuuuus and finally they relax themself that might be he is in relation of prof or he had the paper before the exam.

Hey wait i forgot to mention one very famous and unique tradition of DCE named " supply".
