We wasted an entire day in college today. Did absolutely nothing. We had an evaluation today at 1pm so we all had to stay in college until the faculty showed up. And they showed up at around 4pm! Its quite annoying. Our department is really unorganized. We literally slog for 24 hours a day and still do not manage to produce work of good quality or of great depth. There are times when the work that gets appreciated, is just fancy and in large quantities- it has no depth in terms of concept and research. I feel that just defeats the entire purpose of design- unless of course, it is genius design (which in 99.9% cases, it is not!)
Sometimes I wonder, whether we are designers or decorators?
Besides, there is never any time for recreation or to refresh our minds and look for inspiration. If only we didnt have such long and tedious college hours, at least my output would have been double!
Plagiarism is a major issue in our class. Some students tend to plagiarise work from the net and submit it. Everybody finds out , except the faculty. There have been issues amongst my batch mates because of plagiarism. A couple of times, my friends were also bothered by it. They didn't see how it is fair for students to get away with plagiarism. But, it never bothered me. I always told my friends that dishonesty always backfires in the end. And so it happened...
Recently, some of my batch mates went for their internship interviews. One of them had plagiarized a document off the net, and happened to put it in his portfolio. And the interviewee found out! I dont know whether he eventually got the internship or not but surely he was really embarrassed !
