...Firstly, the argument about selection procedure.<br /><br />Private entities, corporations, companies recruit and select from Institutes they prefer. Salaries are decided based on their discretions. And frankly, who wishes to dole out more than necessary money to acquire a talent - however rich or poor it may be in terms of performance. <br /><br />Assume that a previous passed out batch of selected graduates performs well in a company. Would it think twice about visiting the same college for campus placements? Fat chance if D-Indians arguments are considered convincing.<br /><br />Let's assume for a minute that D-Indian's argument of placements being reflective of selection procedure is true. This suggests that companies selecting the IIM grads have somehow fooled themselves into handing out fat pay jobs to management graduates who have been in turn selected through some ill-designed selection procedure at these institutes (of excellence). This also suggests that somehow the HRs of these companies throughout these years (or decades) haven't had second thoughts about the selection procedures authenticity.Never mind how many of their employees each year have been IIM grads.<br /><br />Or even worse still, the companies are aware of improper selection at the time of admission, but their recruitment procedures are subject to the hype and glamor associated with selecting an IIM grad, or that their selection policies are not up to the mark.<br /><br />What Say D-Indian. I am not too sure of your argument.<br /><br />Secondly, <br />do we need to assess the level of teaching at the IIMs? <br />Yes, most academics will agree. and they also demand a periodical assessment. If I am not too mistaken, the IIMs must be having their own assessment procedures.<br />Nevertheless, it is a point to ponder, when an argument is taken up against level of teaching vis-a-vis student count. Since when did we start equating student intake to assembly line car production? level of teaching is as much of concern to the teacher as it is of concern to parent, student or the state.<br /><br />And demanding 101 instead of 100 won't change assessment. Limited edition Toyotas earn crores per individual model. Assembly line Toyotas earn Lakhs. <br /><br />What say, I don't want to see IIMs being made out into assembly line sort of unit. Even at the cost of less managers through IIMs. <br /><br />Puh leeeeaasse dont touch IIMs. if you can, then set up new units and churn out assembly line products over there.Aashishhttp://www.prayerandsmilespace.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20557782.post-40844648108325799932009-04-29T03:09:00.000-07:002009-04-29T03:09:00.000-07:00Firstly, the argument about selection procedure.
