Decade of Vaccines: Bill And Melinda Gates Foundation

"Incredible progress over the past decade, but the world must invest more to save lives.

Its a commendable attempt. Its a huge amount to make lives better. Bill has opened the gates to change millions of lives in the next decade.

Vice Chancellor Selection Process Gets Strict

"It may no longer be possible to become vice-chancellor of a central or private university merely because a person thinks he is worthy of the job, is able to exercise influence, or is its promoter. He will have to be a part of a National Registry of VCs that will be compiled by the collegium of the proposed National Commission for Higher Education and Research (NCHER)." -- TOI

A step in the right direction. It is usually seen that a candidate hyped higher than Obama, when assumes the responsibility of a VC, turns all hopes down. It becomes difficult to judge whether it was a wrong choice, or the choice has made him wrong.

AMU Medical Entrance Test And Resuting Situations

Dear Alig brothers, AA
Going through various mails posted at nets regarding AMU Medical Entrance test recently held,given me deepest shock.Its only AMU about which no fingers have been raised in respect of Entrance Examinations.Any one can see the visitors comments recorded by them during their stay for Entrance test.
If there is an iota of doubt about the fairness of the prestegious examination , the test exam should be rescheduled again in the interest of the university's prestige at global level.

Since the Medical students are exihibiting their anger through strike the relevent authoriteis shall take notice on priority basis before it goes out of hand like the last student agitation.
May i dare to invite attention of Naushad Ansari n Javed sahiban to look into it.The teachers are busy in court elections. they r more worreid about the Chancellor------.

Easy Tips To An Organized Hostel Room

The easiest one, which I don't recommend, is to stick a witty poster ( sporting Denis etc.) on the door announcing your highly disorganized nature. But this is just a blatant excuse of the callousness and will keep you away from the real joy of an organized room. Organizing helps create a conducive environment to study and helps in time management for students.

Try a little bit everyday. Try to do the job of removing cluttering a little bit every day. If you keep waiting for the weekend, the things get messed up so badly that you may leave for the next weekend only to realize that the situation is even worse now. When returning from classes put the bags, copies and pens in their respective places at the very moment. If a vehicle has been used the keys should be kept in the most accessible place to avoid time loss when you have to start a trip again.

Make your bed every day: The habit of making your bed, bedsheets and blankets properly folded before leaving for the classes. It is bound to give you a soothing feeling when you return back tired.

When buying for racks other utilities for the table try to get a multipurpose rack. One single space will provide for keeping many of the things at an accessible place. Don't pile up junk receipts. Keep necessary and warranty related bills and warranty cards in a separate folder.

Avoid excessive shopping especially for clothes. Think realistically. Do you need more. Because the older ones keep lying and just gobble up the already limited space in the hostel shelves.

Try these simple steps and you will feel better, every day studying and relaxing in an organized and clean environment.
