Anatomy and physiology of the G phylum

Except we RITians, everyone else would feel that this is an article about some biological/zoological research. “G phylum”, name itself fills your mind and soul with respect and you are inundated with gratitude towards a specific species in our RIT.
No need to elaborate whom is I talking about. Irrespective of season, situation and weather condition they keep working hard and sweating out like an ideal Indian farmer.

The members of this group had certain common physical and chemical characteristics. They all were alike in senses of attending classes, their sitting orientation in class rooms, their bonding affinity with alike people and repulsive nature with anti G groups, their performance in class, homeworks and exams, attention of professors, views and attitude loaded with all the burdens of the universe. The aura of few of this phylum was so strong that even profs started calling them with G. I have great respect to them, because of them only I passed my exams. I vividly remember my last night before the exam (or 1st night of study), when I used to see that the phylum was giving the fishing touch (making sure that they have read everything at least three times) and going to bed on time. That was the time I used to rush to them to ask what to study to make sure that I pass the exam. I owe them so much that I still can’t call their names without using the suffix G.

Exam question patterns were made for students like us only. 5 out of 8 question. Read just half the book and no one can fail you in the exam. Passing the exam was the only motive. Who the hell was worried about what is there in the rest half of the book. Anything you don’t understand? Just remember that “aisa hi hota hai”, period. Go to the exam and vomit what you read last night. G phylum would study the whole book, not to make sure all the 5 questions but to select those 5, which can be answered perfectly. We were topper from the bottom. Still we were on cloud nine because our efficiency (input and output ratio) was the highest.

One of the biggest and obvious competitions was to have an impression in “GH” (20 out of 275). Influence of “G” (phylum) was already there, and rest of us was just ‘H’opeless. Many of us tried to put the weight of G to get a success in the arena of GH. But having an honor of G was not easy. You had to be a born fighter and load should be in each drop of your blood. We were like a waste for GH. Max we could do is zoom our motorbike like a flash on the road and after maintaining a considerable distance, ask our buddy sitting behind “kya be dekhi kya?”. I feel like laughing and rolling on the ground how we spent 4 years in RIT.

We can’t go back but surely relish all the memory by sharing with everyone.

How can I forget those innumerable classes where everyone bunked but only couple of "G"'s turned up to lend extra bit of legitemacy to the non existant session ..Have lost lots of Attendance because of them :-(
These guys were not interested in Sports too ..Did not watch any Cricket match or listened to Music !!
Bhagwaan Bachaye !! Dont know how many of "G"'s are still roaming tis planet,considering they had already attained Nirvana when they entered College and led a Saintly life.
