GITAM University : Re-loaded !!(??)

Note:As you all known visible developments have always been a concern with respect to GITAM University Hyderabad campus,So if these developments don’t materialise,We at LAGH have decided to use the same post over and over for the Diwali vacation,and Semester break(Sankranthi vacation),Since it is pointless to compile the same thing all over again :P

GITAM University Hyderabad Campus: Reloaded !!

Really??

Well,not for sure,but our sources rooted deep into the systems of GITAM University,have confirmed that the Hyderabad campus management is struggling hard  to gear up the Campus for a post-Dusheera session,As a net savvy team we would like to call it GITAM 2.0,and in this post we seek to go into the depth of various “new”(pun intended!) stat ups,which will be seen on campus(As usual,We expect our readers to realise that we are dealing with an entity called GITAM University,Which from our past three months observation,has had a director who promises the stars to us,but doesn't even give us dirt!!,So these are what we are expecting,and don’t hold us at ransom if they don’t materialise :P )

DEVELOPMENTS:

The list of new start-up's include the long pending issues of Subway which our dear old director promised,like what an year ago to our beloved Seniors ?,and yet to materialise,We are under the impression that,the Subway might,Might be up in the post-Dusheera Avatar of GITAM.

The other sure shot stuff include:

• Heritage parlour
• Union bank of India(ATM and bank)
• Wi-Fi(GITAM Hostels included )
• New play area(GITAM boys hostels)
• Library expansion
• Student Lockers

 

HERITAGE PARLOUR:

The heritage parlour is expected to come up with about 50% of its regular offering,and once the business sees a good turnover,more products will be added to it.

The heritage parlour is projected to be located in the new canteen premises.

For more details,we will be running an exclusive coverage over the heritage of heritage foods,and also an extensive list of products which will make inroads to the Hyderabad Campus,in the next couple of days :D

UNION BANK OF INDIA:

The bank is here,at least in its virtual form,the Union bank forms have been doing the rounds among the faculty(Who also received their International Debit cards/ATM cards),while the students are still filling up the forms.

The hostellers were the first set of students to receive the form,and most of them are yet to submit them.

The good thing is that the prospect of Union bank setting shop isn’t as bleak as it was a couple of months ago.

The structure,which is set to house the Union bank ,is ready and fully decked up to serve the students of GITAM University Hyderabad Campus,the previous deal to have Indian bank has been scrapped  due to unknown reasons.

The ATM vending machines,and the furniture is  expected to arrive after Dusheera.

WI-FI:

Wi-Fi,yes the seniors got the privilege(at least some senior classrooms ),of having a CISCO router in their classrooms,the juniors are yet to spot on,but the sources say that the projected 50 access points will be up and functional,once the campus reopens.

HOSTEL:

Coming to the internet connectivity of the hostel,the girls hostel is set to have 4 CISCO routers,and the boys hostel on the other hand will have about 12 routers.

With a speed of 300 mbps, the Wi-Fi can be used by more than 3,000 people at any given time through 50 access points on the campus(Including Hostels we presume). The Hyderabad campus is connected to the Visakhapatnam campus which is connected to the internet with a speed of 1000 mbps.

PLAY AREA-LANDSCAPING:

Another massive extension for the GITAM boys hostel,the area between the Block B and the Mess has been converted into a play area.

The landscaping of both the main campus as well as the hostels is under way,the roads are to be laid but,will this all happen before we open the doors again,still remains to see,We desperately want to see it happen :)

The landscaping/construction plan for hostels include:

• Road
• Pavement
• Green cover
• Compound walls :((

STUDENTS LOCKERS:

GITAM University is all set to house a large number of  lockers first to be implemented for the Seniors.

The demand for personal lockers has been long standing,and finally answered by the management of GITAM University,here to the management has decided not to compromise on the quality and has gone in for one of the best makers of personal lockers,Godrej interio.

The brochure for the lockers can be had from here,Click Here.

Yes the corridors will all be packed up,but that is the only draw back for this new facility :)

LIBRARY EXPANSION:

This has been due for a very long time,the Library and reading room will now be combined into one entity.

this will pave way for the library to house more tables,and more racks to hold the books which are all placed on the tables.

Not many will be interested in this development,but it is  nevertheless a development :P
