By the way "I am Batman".
This was meant to be a humorous story about silly law school press releases...
Kian, please do serious stories on education: placements, poor state of faculty at NLUs, corruption, and positive research work done by the few good faculty in NLUs.
Sorry that it hurt your brain though :)
Tell us some good leads on what's going on in academia - know of any good research lately?
Also, what happened to exercising a reader's prerogative of not clicking on a story when you think it's not worthy of your time? :)
You can talk about the readers prerogative sure, but you can also not immediately jump to what seems to be your stock response and think about the reporters responsibility. You have the privilege of having a wide readership, and with that comes the responsibility of using your space wisely and to say important and meaningful things, things that will be worth the readers time and attention. If you do not take your job seriously you do a disservice to your readers, your chosen profession and yourself.
and should readers also be active participants in what our conversations are about as opposed to being just passive consumers? or is that too much pressure?
I appreciate your feedback, but I don't see any harm that's been done by writing about this, which opens a small window into law school world and might elicit a chuckle or two out of a few readers as it did from me.
Also, I think it's worth noting that unlike others we generally don't cover pointless fluff like convocations, celebrations or awards, so our covering this was intended to be the joke.
But there's no arguing about sense of humour really, it's a very subjective thing after all, so I'm sorry it didn't work for you and some others.
There is no harm per se, except all this bandwidth on this very popular website could be used to talk about more important things no?
and go ahead and cover fluff if you want, even humor, but then put it under a seperate column, tag it as humour- like youd have in a newspaper, the cartoon strips and humor columns are confined to their own place that way and readers know what they are getting into.
I dont intend to be argumentative, its just a concern is all.
This might also be because I work in academia and all of academia is now talking about caste and rohith vemula, where is LI's piece on caste in law school? say a survey of problems dalit students face or just the numbers on how many faculty members are from the scheduled castes or scheduled tribes? this is just an example- you dont have to write about this in particular. But there is this tendency to view academia and law schools as being apolitical or as an easy site for a few quick laughs which ordinarily is fine, but I for one do not see just as many articles discussing serious things. That is bothersome.
Anyway- my two cents, take it or leave it.
There unfortunately tend to be slight phases in the targets of our coverage that we have to iron out a little...
This is way too crazy .. especially the dance segment and moot court 'lifting'.
ZRS.
