3. Plagiarism - If you think you can just copy paste anything from the internet and send it as a final report, you are wrong. No no, I don't mean people do not copy projects. Learn to edit your copied material and compulsorily check Grammarly for plagiarism. Anything above 15% and you are screwed.
4. Birthday celebrations - This is not a rule per se however it is practised religiously in IIMK. During an individual’s birthday, at midnight, the entire class comes to celebrate the occasion and cut the cake. Obviously what follows is a truckload of kicks and punches which the poor chap has to bear. But hey, what better way to celebrate birthdays right?
5. Waking each other up – It is an unsaid rule in IIMs that the first person to get up on the floor will wake up 2–3 others as well. The those 2–3 will then wake up their friends and the chain goes on. Its weird, I respond more to a slight knock on my door than to my blaring alarm clock! Wait, what if I change my alarm-tone to a person knocking? Interesting…
6. Deadlines are sacrosanct - Never ever, submit an assignment after the deadline. If you are even late by a minute, your fate lies in the hands of the professor. The level of punishment then is directly proportional to how sadistic the sir is.
7. Dress Code - No one cares about your clothes. Wear anything you want – Indian, formals, shorts, etc. However, if placecom has convened a meeting, better be sure you adhere to the dress code. Not shaving is a grave offence.
8. Don't get caught copying - Cheat all you want to, but if you are caught copying, well well well, you are screwed. Not even your fake tears can help you then. A grade drop is very much on the cards.
However, all these rules cannot match up to the most important rule, which is…
9. Always respect Booze-com. They are the real heroes.
As some learned man once said –
Beer, gin, wine or whisky,
They’ ll keep the stock even though it's risky.
