Abstract: |
This is an auto-ethnography of the time that I spent
at three of the most renowned universities of India
and my experiences thereof. Coming from a relatively
decayed and deadened atmosphere of my college to a
centre for excellence in higher learning filled me with
my own set of anxieties and curiosities regarding my
future and career path on which I was to embark. The
story deals with my personal angst of the alienation
that I felt while at DSE despite my best efforts to
‘keep up’ with the ambience that contrasted with my
exuberant and carefree topography of JNU where one
could be just like the other without putting on a
mask. However, this place too was marked with its
own coda and which bore a mark till one was associated
with campus life. Now that I am no more actively
associated with campus life, there are still times
when I end up shadow boxing with questions about
life and learning. |
