DESCRIPTION :

Approved by AICTE 

In 1996¸ a boat race was part of the third design course in mechanical engineering. Students designed and built model boats powered by small steam engines¸ then raced them for glory (grades). That year¸ the boat race was held in the cooling pond in front of the P.K. Kelkar Library. The race had just begun¸ the judges were strutting back and forth with their sheaves of scoring sheets¸ when pandemonium broke loose. In the heat of the moment¸ everybody had forgotten the large bee hives that hung from the concrete sun shades of the Library. The fumes from the kerosene-burning steam engines had agitated the bees and they swooped down on the assemblage of contestants and spectators. Students ran leaving their boats¸ the judges their score sheets¸ and Prof P.K. Das¸ the instructor of the course¸ just ran away¸ no one knew where to. In more ways than one this event was a first. Never before had an IITK exam ended in such chaos and¸ of course¸ bolting faculty may never be seen again! 

IITK is writing its story. To most people who have been associated with IITK¸ this institute is special in many ways. We hope to bring out this unique flavour in the book and¸ for that¸ we need contributions from everybody who has a story to tell. Irrespective of the nature of your association with IITK¸ you must remember at least one story --- anecdotes from the classroom¸ the playing fields¸ the hostels and the offices of the faculty and staff. Before these are lost or forgotten and before the photos in your old albums fade away¸ the Institute hopes to record them. Your Institute asks you to delve deep into your bag of memories and pull out those reminiscences.
