HOUSING
by Siva Kumar, University of Madras, Madras, India
Accountancy, Independent
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because the city has good facilities and good houses are available for cheaper rents and are located in a good housing area with good transportation facilities
Personal comments:
the accomodation at this university is good but they provide with small rooms inside the campus and are always full. Its cheaper and convinient but if the student needs more facilities its better to stay out. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities, Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:

Personal recommendation:
Worst University in the Entire Universe.They should close this university and make it a museum of arrogant and insensitive staff. FINAL COMMENTS
Last 2-3 years this man who limps from one leg and has a ladies voice named Shanmugam working in the B.Sc examination section of the World Famous Madras University has spoiled my career and life. Every time I meet him he arrogantly asks me to give my number where he can call after a week which he never does. In this period of time I have lost my job 2 times and had extreme financial crunch to go and meet this shanmugam guy to get my work done. He always bluntly says “when I told you after one week why are asking me again, what is this? “. I am very much distressed and have lost faith in the working of this great university. Please someone take heed of this matter and explain shanmugam not to behave badly with needy people and have some sense of pity on people who come to him with great hope and expectations. Madras university is an educational premier in the country but if students future is played upon by people like shanmugam what kind of future we can expect for new india.I am so much distressed and feel like attempting suicide. He has no sympathy for other people's requests and problems. This man is so callous to people’s request and speaks very rudely someday someone might do suicide. Please my humble request to counsel this shanmugam because he even misbehaved with my 63 yrs old appa who was shocked to see this man’s dangerous attitude towards senior citizens even.
