Panimalar management fiercely defends its rules saying they have formed for students well fare.
Opinions
[edit]Parents in Chennai seems to have good opinion about Panimalar College as they believe these strict rules will enforce discipline in students, the students think otherwise. Many say the Panimalarian rules are nothing but management sponsored harassment of students. The lecturers and Professors in panimalar have their own set of rules too! They too fell harassed by management, though they have not admitted it in public yet.
Achievements
[edit]Though Panimalar is a business success, it has no significant achievements in the field of education. There are no research papers published yet. Students attribute to lack of access to library and labs. Labs at Panimalar aint opened 24 hours a day, access to labs have a strict control, students are allowed to do old fashioned experiments targeted to gain marks in exams alone. Many say Panimalr is suffering from a consequence thats suffered by a closed society. its backed by the fact that internet acess is sevearly restricted in Panimalar campus.
Negatives
[edit]Software Piracy
[edit]Its a open secret that almost all computers in Panimalar campus runs on pirated Windows OS.
Constitutional Violation
[edit]Freedom of speech is banned in Panimalar which is direct violation of Indian Constitution. Yet action has not been taken possibly because highly politically and economically influential management.
Caution deposit not returned
[edit]Many students caution deposit has not been returned yet.
Donation Collection
[edit]The college collects non refundable donation in form of cash from students which carries no receipt or bill.
Student Groups
[edit]Many colleges have a democratic system of student election. Panimalar doesn't allow democracy to survive. Instead no student elections are allowed on campus. Perhaps divide and conquer technique suits best to the management. Those students who raise their voice are cornered, they are forced to bring their parents to college, and their parents are humiliates in front of the children. This psaycological tactic seem to work best.
The college is so oppressive that they'll successfully deface this wikipedia page rather than offering any proof that students freedom is allowed.
