Stop complaining and start acting.

The Block 14 face scanner is just the beginning if we don’t wake the hell up. Everyone complains, but there’s zero unity in this college. Students at Ashoka and BITS actually stand up for themselves and get things changed. BITS Goa students shut down the admin’s attempts to install hostel cameras and force biometric scans. Ashoka students have protested and actually made a difference. Meanwhile, here? Nothing. Just a bunch of people whining in private and then rolling over when it actually matters.It blows my mind how passive MIT students are. The admin does whatever they want, and no one even tries to push back. This college used to be great because of the freedom it gave students, and now that’s disappearing, one rule at a time. And what do people do? Sit in their rooms and complain instead of actually doing something.If everyone just refused to enter their hostels—Block 14, Block 22, all of them—what could the admin even do? They can’t punish the entire student body if we all take a stand. But no, instead, we get people who’d rather stay quiet and just accept whatever nonsense gets thrown at them. The whole ‘what can I do alone?’ mindset is the exact reason nothing changes. It’s pathetic. If we don’t start acting now, this is just the start of even worse restrictions coming our way. MANY clgs in India now even allow girls into boys hostel, it’s a very common instance in IIT’s and IIIT’s but here guys are not even allowed into other guys hostel!? This might be the stupidest things ever. All these changes slowing turning this place into VIT and we can’t sit quietly when all of this is taking place. The students in other colleges take action and responsibility in changing their college while we have 0 unity and are a bunch of spineless dumbasses. It’s high time we take responsibility or we’d end up as another VIT
