ID’s for Attendance
Posted on: August 20, 2009
A try to decrease the corruption in sign up system
Instead of signing every morning, everyone will have to give their college ID cards in the office.
Since in the existing signing system someone has to mark late attendance or the absentees in the signup sheets…now he will have to put a tick mark in the sheets, opposite to the names of whoever has given their ID cards.The cards would be returned to0 students in the day time or they can pick it up from the office.
Now since the cards given in office have to be put according to class or department, the ID cards would have department code on it. There is also a color coding system; all the department codes would have different color so it helps while arranging the cards.
This system of collecting cards
– Would reduce corruption since everyone has to give their own card.
– Saves time because you just have to handover the card.
– Makes it easier and faster for Mathew or Mr.Anand to sort out the sign up sheets.
Water Meter – Priya

I asked girls in my pg about how much time do they spend in morning in bathroom and it was approximately 20 mins. Out of which they spend 15 mins taking bath and rest of the time in brushing their teeth and in nature’s call. Then I found out how much water does a shower, flush and faucet use in that much time.
Which came down to
Amount of water used in shower in 15 mins is 135L approx.
Amount of water used in flush is 6L approx.
Amount of water used in faucet per min is 7L approx.
Which comes to 151L!!
which is 79 people’s per day intake of water.
which could also grow 11 tomatoes or 6 potatoes or 2 apples
which can also make 4 cups of tea or 1.5 cups of coffee or 1/2 a glass of milk or 3.5 slices of bread.
The idea behind doing this set up was to make them realise that how much water is being wasted and how the same amount of water can be used for something more useful for eg. growing fruits or vegetables.
