" We were in our 7th semester, placed in decent companies by then and pretty much lost interest in anything that was then related to academics. We had stopped attending most of the classes, we had only 2 courses and a project. One of these courses was taken by our HOD and me and 2 of my friends had bunked as usual. For some reason, another friend of ours had gone and he decided to give us proxies. It was an unspoken pact among the 5-6 of us that whoever attended class would try his best to give the other guys a proxy and hence try and reach the minimum attendance required to write the semester ending exams.
This dude was a little stoned or I don't know what happened, but on this day along with another guy he went overboard and in a class where one could easily assess a head count of about 25-30, between all these guys 54 guys had got attendance. Our HOD freaked out and apparently gave the expression - Mujhe chu*iya samajh ke rakha hai kya? and then he went to every single person and got the list of 26 people who had got a proxy.
Back our friend comes crawling in his dirty jeans and reveals this fantastic news to the 3 of us, saying the HOD wants to meet all of us and he tells us 'Do whatever the fuck you guys want to'. Now me and a friend were slowly thinking of going the Gandhian way and telling the truth and asking for forgiveness and hopefully trying to convince the HOD to bail all of us out of any trouble, while the other friend said, Screw you guys, I am not going to reveal who gave us proxy, I am not a SNITCH. I will handle it. We kept asking him how he planned to handle it, but he said we won't need to speak a word and that he would take care of it.
So we all went to the HOD's cabin, 3 of us and here's how it went.
HOD: Who gave you proxy?
Friend: That's exactly my question Sir, who the hell gave us proxy?
H: What? I don't know. Must be one of your friend, tell me who?
F: Sir, I don't know who gave us proxy and I think this is not acceptable. You need to make sure such things don't happen. Back when I was in 9th my friend got a proxy in class and he met with an accident and then when he filed for insurance, the insurance guys came to know from school that he attended that class, so he could not get the insurance. Then he had to go through a lot of trouble and even our school had got into a lot of problems, you can google it if you want. (Some random story)
H: But..
F: No Sir, this can have dire consequences. What if something happens to me tomorrow and some idiot gives me a proxy in class?
H: Well..
F: In a prestigeous college like ours, we need to have a strict mechanism to take care of these things. One such thing can spoil our name.
H: Ok.. I am Sorry.
F: It's OK Sir. If you come to know who gave us proxy, please tell that person not to do such things in the future and you also take care to avoid this situation
H: OK. Sorry about this.
F: Thank you Sir. See you in the next class.
And all this while, the two of us were trying our best to control our laughter. We finally came out of the room, ran as far as possible and laughed our asses off. Had never seen someone deal with a situation like this and turn it on it's head in such emphatic fashion.
An epic to the power of epic experience it was "
