What if on one fine day, Mr. Kant goes to his bed and is asked to choose between two options: to have 10 trillion straight away but not be able to see the next morning or to be able to see the next morning? Will the views he expressed be the same?

So to say money is equally important but not as valuable as life... Mr. Kant's view is wholeheartedly rejected and is prejudiced. Fascinating such things always outlines harsh realities.

Konse nashe mei yeh sab notions laate ho. Law isn't about language and the random notion of "language is your instrument". It is about sharp analytical ability, the ability to distill thousands of pages into few lines of legal issues, and for a law firm lawyer, great commercial understanding and numeracy skills as well. The best lawyers are the ones who write the most simply and convey all issues effectively. Yeh sab kya bakwaas laga rakha hai - human is your adversary and all. In literally whatever field you choose to work in, an adversary will always be another human.

Omg your brain fart gave me such headache.

Hi.

I'm an ex student of GLC, batch of 2024. GLC staff is incompetent, lazy and straight up rude. They don't do any of their jobs properly. Our batch is facing difficulties in getting enrollment in any state bar council outside of Maharashtra. Because the college has not completed its enrollment with the BCI. GLC only had validity till the year 2020 and not beyond. We have been trying to get our enrollment since September 2024 and the college staff kept ignoring us and refused to help. Especially Siddesh Sir from the admin department. He kept disconnecting our calls and said that we can't do anything.

The OP has gone ad hominem multiple times, even without which the point of the post could have been equally well put across. I am guessing that's the reason the mods have erred on the side of caution. Please note that it is good to highlight the institutional problems and fallings in this platform in order to get your voice heard, but you cannot remain anonymous and individually target any person including your faculty members. LI can be brought to trouble by those people if that happens. Just to clarify, I'm in no way associated with GLC, and I encourage the students to speak up about these problems. Just saying this as a veteran LI user who has figured out the platform's stance over time.

@Mod: Please feel free to correct me if my interpretation is wrong.

Yet another rage post. This has been the situation for a long time now. Principal, Professors, Administration does not care. Whether students cry or die, they are gonna get their salary credited at the end of the month from Government. Nothing is gonna change.

Now it's our responsibility to caution all the young minds about the situation. Please avoid GLC. Don't come here with high (or any) hopes.

Pasting this from one of my letter to principal -

"Attendance - the attendance does not get updated regularly. It is redundant to put mandatory attendance on final year students as they should be free to intern. For e.g.- Symbiosis Law School, NIRMA, etc has system of last year internships.

Faculty - The main concern with GLC is substandard faculty. Students wouldn't have a problem to attend college if the college had quality professors. We feel that we can study more at internships than at college. The substandard education will result in substandard students and bad alumni base. We will soon deplete in good alumni base and face a regressive phase.

Lack of communication - It is important to have communication between students-professors-principal. The principal lacks prompt decision making and when any decision is taken, they are not communicated with professors. It makes the attempt of students vague and result in frustration and sense of disappointment towards college.

Other- Principal needs to take responsibility and bring swift changes whenever needed. She shall address students and not delay them. Students do not feel inclusive. They are put out of loop. There cannot be a college environment unless there are professors and administratives who can understand foster the environment. The administration needs to study new and better college structures, such as those followed by NLUs and implement them immediately.

The gradual decline of college is evident with aggravated behaviour of students towards college's actions, such as various petitions filed in courts. Lesser and lesser placements shows the declining interest of Law Firms. One cannot find an alumni from recent years or current students who can give positive remarks regarding college. We feel very much disassociated with the college.

Last and sincere request, please don't transform the college into a school. Let student's voice be heard and make positive transformations. It will be a matter of time when GLC will be just another City College if it does not keep up with changing times."

Everything that glc stood for has just faded away. We have to wait for hours and hours to meet with the principal for something simple as getting her signature. They expect us to attend lectures, and we would be happy to do so, if only they atleast provide us with a decent teaching staff and basic classrooms. The entire college is under construction and i have no idea why this had to be done right in the middle of a semster.

I have never seen a college that is out to get it's students like this. They make studying in this college impossible.

Hi, as an ex student this is incredibly sad and heartbreaking. I have always raved about the autonomy GLC gave its student bodies and the benefits we reaped. AV’s behaviour is going tank the institution and her permanent position is a problem. Think students should try and arrange a protest/ think of ways of getting her to work with the student body instead of just promoting the two clubs you mentioned above. While spreading this awareness is a good idea, try fighting it.

Agreed! Asmita Vaidya is the ▮▮▮ stigma to this prestigious institution. When see the list of Principals on the wall near lift, you will automatically realise her ▮▮▮. ▮▮▮. And another stigma is ▮▮▮ (and I am deliberately not ▮▮▮).

The Principal ▮▮▮, she asks to get the bonafide application signed by all professors and if you don’t have adequate attendance bonafide certificate will not be issued. ▮▮▮ she don’t understand the very purpose of the bonafide certificate, why do you need professors sign, attendance for it?

▮▮▮ did not even allowed students to appear for Presentations and Vivas due to lack of attendance, and students were scored out of 20 and not out of 40. When we complained of the same to Principal, after begging to allow us to score properly, ▮▮▮ agreed to conduct internals for remaining 10 marks. ▮▮▮ she deliberately made it so difficult and conducted along with ▮▮▮ (another stigma). The questions asked had connection neither to the topic nor to the subject.

I am seeing students from Tier 2/3 colleges are scoring better than us. NLUs, ILS and other college students are performing better in competitions and winning them. Their college provides research platforms, mentors, they even conduct practice sessions before going to such competitions.

I came to GLC with lot of hope, but with my hope this institution is going down the line with speed of light. Whatever “izzat” is left is because of the meritorious students who are self studying for exams, self learning all the skills, trying to intern at good places, working their butt off to make it in this profession. All my batchmates/friends are fade up of these people. There are no good faculty left. And whoever is there, like Daswani sir and Pithawalla sir are also fade up of the principal, ▮▮▮.

Change in the administration and a competent Principal only will change the current situation.

Because if you think about it, the conditions that lead to mental health problems were WORSE in previous generations. They got much less pay, had poorer parents and didn’t get luxuries that we all take for granted (e.g. AC in the home, Uber, Netflix etc). They were also more sexually repressed.

Look mate. Let me give you a perspective, based on meeting one Amity graduate, and one graduate only. I once knew an Amity graduate who went for a reasonable quality foreign master's in law (LLM) degree (full disclosure: I myself was doing that same degree at that time). That LLM's admissions requirement is that you have performed above average (if not spectacularly) on the academic front during your undergraduate years, but their admissions staff didn't really have all that fantastic an understanding of what an above average grade from certain Indian universities meant, so this Amity graduate was admitted. She was one of the intellectually most under-quality students in our entire cohort (it is only a small level of liking for her on a personal level that prevents me from labelling her as the least bright). Not kidding. I had almost zero idea about Amity law school before I knew this person and just thought, 'Oh, she's from the uni others love to hate on'. After meeting her, I must say it will be slightly harder for me to look at other Amity graduates without any form of preconceived assumption (though I promise to try). This is because she was finding it hard to cope with a level of coursework that was difficult enough to keep the rest of us on our toes, but not to give us fits. There were, as I say, other Indians on that LLM, including from DU and NLUs, who managed fine; she didn't, however, and she admitted that the reason was the substandard quality of her undergraduate education. I hope that this is helpful in terms of looking at your choices. Take this into account with what others have said or will say about Amity graduates who did other things after taking their law degrees.

Wish there was some way we could call this nonsense out rationally, reasonably, calmly, point-by-point and not anonymously. What's the point of a so-called "marketplace of ideas" if there cannot be a genuine clash of ideas as a fair fight? All these dynamics - the toxicity itself, us as students being afraid to call things out etc in order to preserve professional reputations - are very disappointing and sad.

That post received support across all age groups, and let me tell you why:

- it was drafted by a lawyer who is THE GO TO AOR for almost every high stake matter @ the SC;
- it was exceptionally well drafted! - did no one notice the immaculate English on display (screams that only meritocracy wins at Karanjawala & New Delhi);

- it is only those who align with THAT who stand a chance of getting her support in return, ie. a counsel brief for arguing any of her matters;

- don't miss this part - if you miss her call just because of it being a weekend, she’ll move on to someone else. I say - Fair enough!

Kid. Change your mindset. Are you expecting definitive working hours in litigation? So client comes to you or your boss for urgent bail at 11 pm which has to be filed next morning. Do you propose to tell the client, dude I am too chill. This is not my working hours right now?

This urgency in the profession can't be changed. It is the need of the client who is stuck in a problem.

You think it's toxicity. It isn't. Its your mindset. If you dont understand what litigation is, better leave it.

Totally agree. As an aspiring teacher, I have been really conflicted to join academia now seeing how poorly students talk. Imagine walking into a class after reading all this. Students have become teachers of their teachers. While no profession is above scrutiny, the manner in which educators are discussed betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of their role and challenges. Teaching itself is a life long learning process. But in online spaces and informal discussions here, we often see a growing tendency to reduce professors to caricatures: outdated, disconnected, or merely obstacles rather than enablers of learning. Such narratives fail to acknowledge the structural limitations within which they operate: e.g. underfunded institutions, overwhelming administrative burdens, or the ever-increasing expectation to publish at a pace that leaves little room for genuine intellectual engagement. I totally believe being mentored by many of the silent workers that while teachers are not infallible, they are indispensable.

Instead of anonymous posting, students and disgruntled faculty should formally complain if they have issues or are unhappy with their colleagues. Defaming people anonymously is cowardice.

If you're in a public role, you open yourself to the scrutiny of people. A person may have Post Doc from the best university of the planet, but it means nothing if they are unable to convey their knowledge to the students. A person may be an expert in the field, but s/he may be too much theory oriented for a law school.

It's good to debate and discuss openly, rather than talking in hush hush tones on WhatsApp groups.

Moreover, the National Law University Delhi (NLUD) has experienced a tremendous surge over the past two years, marked by some spectacular performances from the faculty, students, and administration. This has resulted in the establishment of a UNESCO chair, an International Arbitration chair, and various courses, such as the WIPO course and an insolvency course, which saw participation from all NLUs, including NALSAR and others.

Additionally, the university has set up an incubation center, an AI unit, and a SOAS project. We have also appointed four world-class faculty members, among other achievements. As an alumna of this university, I can confidently say that NLUD is on its way to becoming the undisputed number one law school in the country. Rather than chest-thumping, try to draw a bigger line.

1) about 9-10 people.

2) yes.

3) mostly around the subjects I had mentioned I would be open to teaching.

4) about 12 minutes.

5) Reasonable, fair - yes. The questions were sharp enough to test subject expertise. The challenge was more around the interview format and time. You cannot really prepare for the questions, but they were not technical pointed questions but broadly around the subjects.

6) no discussion on it.

7) no.

Don't think these are trivial questions at all.

See, this is something that the university should make provisions for. It cannot possibly be that expensive to arrange. The single-greatest perversion of the urban life in India begins in the mutual degradation of travelling in poor quality transit, private or public, not to mention the daily haggling with native dons in their auto-rickshaws.

I'm a I year student at a tier 3 NLU, where the condition of placements, without sugarcoating, is in dire condition. I still haven't completely abandoned hopes for corporate, though. The thing is, I'm completely clueless regarding internships as to how one is supposed to plan his/her internships. For some reasons, I wasn't able to do any internship in the first internship break after the first semester. Are people supposed to intern at courts first, before moving on to firms and others or something like that? I get no clues from my seniors. Some of my batchmates talk about applying for a firm with a stipend but I'm yet to understand why and how a first year would be accepted by a firm! Are centres such as the Centre for Communication Governance of NLUD or CCL or CEERA of NLS worth it? Where should I apply for an internship for the upcoming semester break (which will be my first internship) for May- June?

Kindly give your valuable suggestions.
Regards.
