The Quotable Professors

Quotes from some of myself and my colleagues (paraphrased from memory)
“We do not want our students to be victims of their own education.”
“You can go to the main gate and see that we are ‘Indian Institute of Technology.’ We are not your employment bureau.”
“You are free to take more management and economics courses. Just don’t expect to get a B.Tech. in Chemical Engineering at the end of four years.”
“We are not a training facility, we are an educational institute.”
“Your JEE rank is meaningless from here on. It got you in and thats it.”
“Its tough to think simple. Simple does not imply simplistic.”
Liked all the Quotes
Especially this one —
“You are free to take more management and economics courses. Just don’t expect to get a B.Tech. in Chemical Engineering at the end of four years(five in my case).”
