I had always thought about it. Also my dad used to tell frequently.
Human beings, having evolved from forest-dwelling monkeys, are able to protect themselves from great ailments.
We ate apples without washing it. We ate rabbits' meat without cooking it. We were perfectly fine. No grave ailments touched us. And we were inherently strong enough to ward off silly diseases like indigestion, cold, head ache, coughs, stomach ache, loose motion, nausea etc...
SPJIMR is a very good institute with the worst infrastructure facilities in this country. This is a popularly known fact, atleast among alumnis, students and faculties.
Infrastructure development so as to have a sprawling campus in a large area is not in question, only because we are in the middle of a city in the largest populous city of the world, mumbai.
Interesting thing is that even little amenitites are in the verge of great peril.
Hygiene is not even a word to be included in the college dictionary. Water is never good for drinking. But they find it ecstatic in proclaiming that samples of water from water coolers were taken and sent to Indian water Sample testing Institute, Central government and found that totally fit for drinking. No body seems to realize the fact that, water smells like rotten egg.
Mess is a very small hall. The basin for washing hands is decorated with last weeks food items. All the employees working in the mess sleep over dining tables and brush their teeth in the basins. I donno whether they take bath in the same basin. I have seen buckets around the place.
Food is not hygienic. People get different kind of ailments from cerebral malaria, chicken pox to viral fever, sore throat, general unwellness etc. I donno whether we have taken patents over diseases which we discovered in SPJIMR. Recently we have appointed a resident doctor which had never been there even after it was ranked one among the top ten collges in business education.
2 things are sure.
1. We are made strong business leaders from inside by improving our power of immunity by constantly contributing challenging situations.
2. The moment we are out of the institute, we wont find ourselvess feeling good without doing something great for the infrastructure development part of the economy for this yet-to-be-superpower nation.
