#IdemandFromMyLawSchool


 

 

Changes that I demand from my Law School

"Change is not pleasant , But change is constant . Only when we change and grow, We'll see a world we never know."


1)      Communication between the teachers and students

 Is there paucity of academic interaction between the students and the teachers? The teachers should take student’s review of not only the way they want to be taught but also of the syllabus. Certainly the syllabus for substantive and procedural laws cannot be changed but majority of us are doing an integrated course, may be B.A, BB. A, B.com,etc. Is the syllabus that is being taught  helpful enough to sustain legal knowledge or something more can be done to get the syllabus in commensuration as it is the time of specialisation. Is the system flexible enough  to accept such change?

 

2)      Why don’t you give me the answer sheets back?  


Why is it so that I write my examination you disclose the result after months that too without my answer sheets in my hand. How do I get to know where I went wrong. You talk about improvement, how will I improve till the time you don’t tell me where to improve. I am sure there has been times when we all felt that the checking has been done arbitrarily and the only solution you are left with is to file the re-evaluation form, pay 650 bucks, wait for an year and by the time your results appear you forget the syllabus, what you wrote in the examination is a far cry.


3)      Are new recruitments fit enough to teach?


India represents 1/6th of human race but contributes only 2.8 percent in the global output research. The question is are the new teachers fit enough to persuade a law student to research and appreciate the fundamentals of legal principles. Has any authority cross checked the teachers, taken the views of the students, attended even one class with the students to check if the teacher is competent enough to hold a classroom. It is nothing unprecedented because the school I belong from had this mode of recruitment, and it was a Catholic school, no wonder why all Catholic schools are more prestigious.


4)      Less of paper work 


 I wonder how many student initiatives die fearing the laborious task of paper work he/she has to go through. An accessible authority is all a student demands, such an authority should be answerable to everything.
