Project Jadavpur University - Making JU better
Jadavpur University is one of the best Universities in India. In 2001 it earned many kudos, and distinguished itself in India's higher educational map as one of the premier institutions in India. Project Jadavpur University is a series of articles dealing with the unique characteristics of the institution, and suggestions for improvements. The comments are purely personal, and the suggestions have been made with my personal experience as a student of the same institution.

These articles are purely personal and DOES NOT claim any authority or accuracy. The motive of the articles is general awareness, and not disparagement, as some might be led to believe. These articles have been written with the objective of providing some insights into various aspects of JU life and culture, and to provide suggestions for improvements wherever the university is found wanting. The comments are made from direct experience of the university life as a student of the English Department for many years. Most of the comments would apply ideally to the English Department only, and any extrapolation so as to apply to the whole university in general is purely conjectural, and hence, might be inaccurate.

 Jadavpur University Forum
JU Forum is a forum of discussion on Jadavpur University. Originally conceived as a personal viewpoint on the University, JU Forum intends to bring various aspects of JU life before the online public. This website tries to bring before you JU inside-out, telling you about those various aspects, both good and bad, which one cannot find in any manual or report. Being mostly the personal experiences of one person (as of now), all the articles are organically connected and are vibrantly alive- these articles are witness to four years of university life and the various ups and downs.

JU Forum will intend to give not only information about the university, but also try to provide suggestions for making the university better- Project JU is one example of this endeavour. JU Forum will try to rein in the experiences of various college mates, and will thus try to broaden the vision.

As detailed in Disclaimer, the articles are neither authorative, nor does it claim of any accuracy- they are rather interpretative and suggestive, and some of the articles are in the form of memories. Sensibilities inadvertently hurt in any article(s) is sincerely regretted.
