i came to delhi on 27 and was regularly attending my classes in deshbandhu (pol sci hons) since then but obv i didnt like the clg much and was staying moslty in pg but i loved the Kalkaji area.

now in upgradation round 2 yesterday i got allocated SHAHEED BHAGAT SINGH (history hons) , feeling v confused as ill be joining very late plus its two stations far plus idk if i will miss societies auditions .

additionally most groups must have been alrdy been formed so idk

So my sister is doing ba from a sol college(vivekananda college,DU)....usko lagbhag 2 saal ho gaye honge....and now she is saying ki usko Hansraj se message aaya hai college milne ka?I mean is it possible to get hansraj without giving CUET?

Same as title

bhai inko kabhi samajh mein kyu ni aata ki sb hostel mein ni rehte, subeh 9 baje nikalne ke liye 6 baje uthna padta hai, raat ko pehle se chize tayyar karke rakhni hoti hai...it's so frustrating jab inki koi accountability nahi hoti ki kab aayenge aur kab chutti lelenge. Batayenge bhi to ek ghante pehle batayenge bhadwe.

fuck you du

hii! is there anyone who's preparing for neet while in jmc du?

Is it a good college .... please can any senior give me directions

I got allotted ARSD yesterday...but..Due to alot of personal reasons.. i cant join the college before 1st september.. will there be any issue??! Any repercussions i have to face for being so late?! And also when will physical document verifications will happen?

How common is it for teachers to kick you out of class for being absent in previous class or incomplete notes? My brother just got into ARSD for BSc electronics hons. and there's this very strict teacher (someone Jyoti (teaches semiconductors) who kicks students out for not attending previous lectures and labs. And she is marking them absent. Is she even allowed to do this?

Please give suggestions on how to deal with this situation. This was his first day and he got kicked out of the lab for not attending the previous one 🤡

Pls don't tell that it's just me 😭

I'm in a good college in South campus, been going to the college for like 4-5 days, did a good few classes and they seem ....a bit too easy? Like in my physics class, the professor started collision and ended it all in a single day, it was almost like he was forced to come to the class and teach. It felt way too surface level with no discussion or going in depth of the topic, he came to the room did a few derivations and that was it, Anyone else feeling the same way? Is this how we're gonna be taught in the 4 years?

I really feel like Thanos at the end of age of Ultron "Fine I'll do it myself" .

Thank god , I didn't feel left out today. My friends weren't there so there were us "3 loners" sitting together around a canteen table else I always end up crashing a grp unintentionally when I see an empty seat or awkwardly leaves after apologising.

One who was next to me seemed to be a fresher who was completely blanked out , eating chole bature staring mid air into nothingness, lost in thoughts..... She looked kinda sad ... maybe I'm wrong and the other had an ipad on, having veg momos and pepsi on the side - watching smth engaging. She looked so cool lowkey

I really wanted to strike a convo but couldn't haha 😭

We were in a world of our own, detached from our bustling surroundings but smhw we were not A L O N E if that makes sense.

WHAT IS THIS UPDATE? CAN'T EVEN TYPE A L O N E

NOT EVERYTHING IS ABT R E L A T I O N 🚢 G N G

Can any bsc microbiology seniors suggest what lecture, notes or books to go for to actually understand things in semester 1?

PLS GIVE THIS MORE AWARENESS!!!!

I'm literally clueless where to go after college any recommendations?😭

I’m an introvert studying at Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (SBSC), Delhi University, and honestly, I’m tired of having to explain something that should be basic common sense.

I’m not someone who talks to everyone. During my first semester, I basically avoided everyone. In my second semester, I finally started opening up a little and made two close friends, one male and one female. That is basically my entire social circle.

My college life is literally: go to college > sit with my friends during breaks > attend classes > go home. That's it.

The guy I'm talking about is a friend of my male close friend, and we're all classmates. For a while now, whenever I'm around my male friend, this guy makes these “hichkich” noises, teasing sounds, gestures and comments. This particular guy has also repeatedly taken pictures of me and sent them directly to my male friend, followed by comments and gestures implying something about me and my friend.

I've also helped this guy with college work before. I'm someone who helps people generally, and I've helped him with things like rescheduling his presentation/submission around deadlines and other college-related stuff. I've never insulted him. I've never embarrassed him. I've never picked a fight with him.

So there was never some personal conflict between us. I ignored his behavior for a long time.

Something similar have happened with me in my school life and at that time I ignored it and kept quiet thinking people will get exhausted and forget it.

Well they didn't.

It became much bigger problem and I promised myself I would never let myself get pushed into that situation again.

So today I confronted him. And I was polite. I told him: “You're making me uncomfortable. Stop.”

I even explained what my actual problem was. If you want to make your stupid “hichkich” noises or whatever gestures you want around my male friend when I'm not there, that's your business. But when I'm standing there and I've told you that it makes me uncomfortable, stop doing it around me.

even said, sarcastically, that if he had such a desperate need for “hichkich,” I could provide him with Vicks. Because seriously, what exactly am I supposed to do with that?

His response was basically: “I would do it.” And then somehow I became the problem. That's the part I cannot understand. Have you ever actually stopped for two seconds and thought about what a girl might feel when someone repeatedly takes her pictures, sends them around, makes suggestive noises about her, and then continues to say, “Yeah, you're the problem”?

Or is it simply easier to laugh because you're not the one experiencing it? You don't get to decide whether something is uncomfortable for me. I do. And I don't care if you think it's funny. I don't care if your friends think it's funny. Once I have clearly told you to stop, continuing isn't “just a joke” anymore. It's you deliberately choosing to ignore a boundary.

And honestly, today was already a fucking awful day. The usual shitty Delhi chaos had already started my day badly. I had multiple things go wrong before I even reached college. By the time I got there, I was already exhausted. Then this happened. And that was my breaking point. I broke down. I wasn't trying to create a scene. I wasn't trying to get attention. I wasn't trying to make anyone feel sorry for me.

I just reached the point where I couldn't keep swallowing everything and pretending it was fine. And the worst part is that after all of this, I literally told my friends that maybe I should just stop interacting with everyone again. Maybe I should go back to first semester. Maybe avoiding everyone was the right thing. But why the fuck should I have to do that?

I'm already someone with a very small social life. I already have a tiny social circle. I already spend most of my life going to college, sitting with my two close friends during breaks, attending classes and going home. I'm not asking for much. I'm asking to exist around my friends without being photographed, teased, sexualized or made uncomfortable.

I shouldn't have to give up the only friendships I've made because someone else thinks his entertainment is more important than my boundaries. And no, this isn't about me being unable to take a joke. There is a difference between joking with someone and making someone the subject of your joke after they've told you they don't like it. There is a difference between harmless teasing and repeatedly taking someone's picture, sending it to someone else, making suggestive noises and then saying “I'll keep doing it” after being asked to stop. At that point, you're not joking with me. You're disrespecting me.

I'm not writing this because I want revenge. I'm writing this because I genuinely want to know how other students deal with this kind of behavior before it becomes something much bigger.

I refuse to believe the solution is for me to become quieter, smaller and more isolated. I shouldn't have to disappear just because someone else refuses to learn how to behave.
