linux in engg colleges
by Triptpal Singh 14 Nov '01

14 Nov '01

I have just done my BE (comps) from the university. To the best of my knowledge , my college , Ram rao Adik Institute of technology,Nerul,DY patil vidyanagar is the only college to have a first class Linux server lab with RH being used. Also it is the only college which probably has a LUG in the college -complete with mailing list and all....we all had login/passwds ,email accts... the best thing is this - all this is being managed by students -dedicated ones. Why dosent someone get in touch with RAIT and then go slowly from there - word spreads... ALso yes FE Unix is confirmed - but pls dont be too optimistic ...heres the real scene - FE's (first year guys) have 6 subjects , Unix with C being one of them For most , programming is a new concept , Unix being the extra burden. Infact for most professors too , Unix is a alien idea , anything the students do outside the cheap 100/- guides available will be adding to the limited knowledge the professor has. So all students will stick to textbooks since no one does practicals in engineering till maybe 3/4th year. Also Linux initiative in colleges - pls catch only 2/3rd year students. reason - only students who will want to work for u are students who want to do an MS in CS/EE/CE in usa. For which they need to show they were geeks all along , Linux being the perfect route ..specially when they do something for college - like organise "seminars " for NCST and TIFR(biig names) guys. this will be exaggerated to one paragraph in their recommendations and most engineering profs will blindly sign --so pls be careful abt the whole scene. again we might also get something useful by getting some awareness. I can contribute on sundays...in Mumbai...after december.. and yea right now I am in PCS , working for General Electric-Aircraft Engines on Java/JSP/servlets .....this is where most engineer learn their fundas - the 3 month industry training after college ..

by Anand 13 Nov '01

13 Nov '01

On 18th Lug meet, I would like to make a 15 minute presentation on TROWSER. In the last few days, I have been thinking on how to make it really beneficial for contributors in other words, how open source can really benefit the contributors. I would like to unveil a newer method of guaranteeing returns to contributors of the open source and free software. Please inform me in case any protocols or formalities need to be observed.
