a very good response.I could also know that MEC,Kochi uses
completely free
software for all their lab work which is very appreciable
CS depts at Govt Engineering colleges Trichur and Sreekrishnapuram use
completely Free Software --- and many other college CS depts are shifting over ...
One or two enlightened faculty members can make a *lot* of difference -
take for example the case of GEC Sreekrishnapuram - the CS dept professors
there will accept project reports only in LaTeX; simple things like this
have a lot of impact.
I think there will be other way around also. Students can insist that they will provide reports only in LaTeX. I believe they have the right to do so, since in schools using Free Software already introduced.
