BEWARE OF THE DISTANCE EDUCATION COURSES!

The Distant Education Field has been in total disarray all these years, all over India, where what has been happening is IRRESPONSIBLE, DEPLORABLE & WHOLESOME EXPLOITATION of the dreams of millions of ordinary students who want to be something in life by attaining something higher under the STUPID & ILLUSIORY DISTANT EDUCATION SYSTEM PROVIDED BY ALL THE FLEECING DISTANT EDUCATION CENTRES & UNIVERSITIES!

I provide below a copy of the things posted in an ‘ORKUT’ community that students/people of India can have a fair idea of the things happening in ‘the Universal Distant Education Programmes’ happening in India!

IT IS EDUCATION MADE UNAPPROACHABLY DISTANT!
IN BANGALORE, the Distant Education Business Is Thriving & It Records More Than 100% Growth Every Year! What the so-called distant education centres do is SPOILING THE FUTURE OF THE STUDENTS, who by bad luck register in these scheming & sub-standard educational centres to earn a Degree or a Post Graduation Degree!

At the time of admission they all have a VERY FRIENDLY & SMILING FACE FIXED ON THEIR DEADLY & GHOST-LIKE FACES! But, when the admission or THE REMITTANCE OF FEE IS OVER, the false face drops & their UGLY & DECAYING FACE COMES TO THE FORE!

They announce classes for the distant education programmes, as they have taken money at the time of admission, & seldom inform students about the timings properly & timely. And, if somehow, one manages to know the class timings by calling the centre's office a million times or by other means, the so-called teacher seldom arrives on time and never takes classes as it should be taken; in other words, in most of the cases, the class is/means telling the stories of their college days, their adventures in those days, their love affairs, their own greatness and A LITTLE BIT OF THE SUBJECT or we should say WHAT THEY KNOW ( In Most of the Cases They Knew Very Little!) Most of the PROMISED TEACHERS NEVER APPEAR & MOST OF THE TOPICS WILL BE LEFT UNTAKEN! THIS SORT OF CHEATING & SPOILING THE STUDENT'S FUTURE & MORE IS DISTANT EDUCATION IN MOST OF THE DISTANT LEARNING CENTRES IN BANGALORE!

TO BE CONTINUED............................!
PART - II
SLN College Jayanagar (They have branches in a couple of places), Oceanik Education Society Malleswaram etc are some of the Distance Education Contact Centres, where the ONLY THINGS THEY DO IS

1) TIMELY FEE COLLECTION, 2) TIMELY ADDITIONAL FEE COLLECTION, 3) TIMELY LATE FEE COLLECTION,
4) TIMELY EXTRA FEE COLLECTION, 5) TIMELY FINE COLLECTION FOR NOTHING,
6) TIMELY RECIEPT-LESS MONEY COLLECTION FOR THE EXAMINERS & PRACTICAL EVALUATORS,
7) TIMELY RECIEPT-LESS MONEY COLLECTION FOR COPYING IN THE EXAM IN THE PRESENCE OF THE SO CALLED INVIGILATORS THESE INSTITUTIONS EMPLOY- In more cases than one we find INVIGILATORS WHO EVEN HAVENT PASSED THE +2 COURSE!

MY GOD IT IS NOT DISTANT EDUCATION.................................!
IT IS EDUCATION MADE UNAPPROACHABLY DISTANT.............................!!!

A LETTER ABOUT DISTANCE EDUCATION!
THIS IS A REPRODUCTION OF THE LETTER I RECIEVED.....! PLEASE, HAVE A FAIR UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATURE OF DISTANT EDUCATION PROVIDED!
THERE WILL, OFCOURSE, BE THOUSANDS OF SUCH UNPUBLISHED LETTERS IN THE MINDS OF THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS WHO GET CHEATED BY THE DISTANT EDUCATION CENTRES & THE UNIVERSITIES, WHICH PROVIDE TACIT SUPPORT & APPROVAL TO THEIR "REGISTERED SUBORDINATES" (READ DISTANT EDUCATION CONTACT CENTRES!)

The people in the Ulsoor Branch of SLN College, Jayanagar, Bangalore, registered/admitted me as a student there for the MSc Applied Chemistry course (2007-2009) of Kuvempu University, in 2007. At the time of admisssion, they told me that they would inform me about the starting of the class very soon. But, as the announcement never came even after months of waiting, I started to call them; they kept telling me that they would inform me. As usual, the call from them never came. Then, after another couple of months & a number of telephone calls from my side I got the information that on 21-03-08 the class would start, at 6.00 pm, in the Sree Samaj School, Chamarajpett!

TO BE CONTINUED...............................!
PART II 8/31/09
I went there at 6.00pm and the class started, after 6 pm. In the theory classes, they never took class for MSc Applied Chemistry, though there were 20 students there for 1st YEAR MSc. Applied Chemistry; what they took was the Topics of General Chemistry. Only one person ( Mr. Sreenivas, that was what he told his name was!) came there to take class & he didn't know anything about Applied Chemistry; he taught what he knew; and that was never Applied Chemistry! In the general class, where the students of MSc General Chemistry were their Only Target, Mr. Sreenivas, expansively talked about the great deeds he had done while he was in his college days! He SADLY TOLD that he was NOT PAID BY THE CONTACT CENTRE (SLN COLLEGE!) and SLYLY REFERRED TO THE ADDITIONAL MONEY the II year MSc students (Our Seniors) gave him FOR HIS EXTRA HELP in the subject, the previous year! HE TRUMPETED IT WAS HIS COMMITMENT & DEDICATION towards the students that fetched him there to take THE LABOURIOUS CLASSES HE TOOK! And, he lavishly recieved calls on his mobile and
talked to them elaboratively, while he was in the class. He always ANNOUNCED the class to begin at 6.00pm but never started on time. When I asked about OUR MSc Applied Chemistry Class (Physical Chemistry), He PROMISED A TEACHER WOULD COME & TEACH US APPLIED CHEMISTRY, from April 5th, 2008; but THAT TEACHER NEVER TURNED UP! This was the THEORY CLASS I got!

I give you the details of the THEORY CLASS SLN College People Conducted below:-

PART 4
After the last class on 04-04-08, I was told that I would be informed about the Applied Chemistry Class, which a supposed new teacher would take, and the Lab Class too would be informed. All these things never happened. And, on May 14th, while I was in Kerala, I recieved a call telling me that the PRACTICAL EXAMS WOULD START ON MAY 15th! Then, I called SLN & Sreenivas and complained they had not conducted practical classes & asked how could they announce the practical exams without conducting the Lab Classes & that too at such short notice. After a large number of telephone calls they asked me to come over to do the practical classes; I went to Sree Samaj School,
Chamarajpett & did my practical classes and did my Practical Exams at the end of those classes. I was the only student in the practical lab to do the practical and I was the only student in the lab to appear in the exams; I completed my practical exams excellently on June 1st 2008!

Then, it was the time for the Theory Exams; exams were scheduled on 29 & 31 of August 2008 and 02 & 04 September 2008. Most of the students who paid 150/- per paper were allowed to COPY UNINTERUPTED, though most of them were in unchartered territory as to what the right or the next right answers were! I didn't pay or copy; as I had reffered to/studied a lot of books & studied practically well, the exams were just fine for me and I finished the exams with confidence & great satisfaction. We even had an invigilator who had just joined for +1 commerce, whom I first met in Sree Samaj School, Chamarajpett, running errands for Sreenivas (Our Sir) & other persons! All those things were just a farce!

PART 5
Then, came the result time! The result was announced in the month of MARCH, 2009. In the web site my result was declared "WITHHELD" and no reasons were given. From then onwards I regularly contacted Ulsoor & Jayanagar SLN College, in turns, as Ulsoor Branch would ask to contact SLN Jayanagar & vice versa. They told me a lot of times, in response to my telephonic enquirees about MY WITHHELD RESULT" that MY EXAM PAPERS WERE EVALUATED & RE-EVALUATED and after all those things getting settled THEY WOULD INFORM ME ABOUT THE RESULT. By this time, all my trust towards them (SLN COLLEGE) had vanished completely and I kept calling them until 26-06-09! When the time of admissions for the 2nd year MSc Applied Chemistry arrived they regularly called me & asked me to join SLN College for the second year MSc Applied Chemistry; as I had had enough of those people ( SLN College/People), I told them I was NOT GOING TO JOIN THERE FOR THE SECOND YEAR. But, I kept calling them for MY RESULTS & THEY KEPT SAYING WHAT THEY HAD BEEN SAYING FROM THE MONTH OF THE PUBLISHING OF THE 1st YEAR RESULTS, that was in MARCH 2009!

PART 6
Then, in JULY 2009, I mailed (Through Registered Post) to The Deputy Registrar Of Evaluations, Directorate Of Distance Education, Kuvempu University, Jnana Sahyadri, Shankaraghatta, Shimoga District, Karnataka-577451. & emailed to dde@kuvempu.ac.in ; info@kuvempuuniversitydde.org ; ssgc@kuvempuuniversitydde.org, voicing my problem & grief. I got the aknowledgment for the mail sent to the University Address. But, I didnt get any response to the email sent. Then, after a couple of weeks from me sending the emails & regular mail, all of a sudden one Mr.Suresh from Kuvempu University called me on 21-08-09, Friday at 3.27pm from 08282256426 and told me that MY RESULT HAD BEEN COLLECTED LONG BACK, IN ONE OF THOSE DAYS WHEN I HAD BEEN CALLING THE SLN PEOPLE REGULARLY TO GET MY RESULT, IN PERSON BY SLN COLLEGE, ON APRIL
21st, 2009 & I could get "MY FAILED MARK CARD/STATEMENT" FROM THEM (SLN COLLEGE) "NOW"!!! I WAS SHOCKED & PERTURBED TO THE INNER CORE DUE TO THIS RAW DEAL & CHEATING. Understanding the ILLICIT CONNECTION OF SOME IN THE KUVEMPU UNIVERSITY & THE SLN PEOPLE and THE TOTAL DISREGARD SHOWN IN THE MATTER OF STUDENTS' FUTURE was something that was so disturbing.

This has been the sort of treatment I have been getting from SLN College, Jayanagar, Bangalore, from the time I joined for MSc Applied Chemistry, Kuvempu University. Hence, I changed my Kuvempu University contact centre for the Final Year MSc Applied Chemistry to Oceanik Education Centre, Malleswaram, Bangalore.

(BUT THAT IS THE SAME STORY IN ANOTHER BOTTLE!) TO BE CONTINUED..!
