Malady exposes Maladministration

Here I have given a news item that appeared in The Hindu (dated 11-05-2012) on page 3 that talks about a great blunder that should NOT have happened in a reputed AUTONOMOUS college. The daily news paper is decent in NOT mentioning the name of the college. But I want to expose the current maladministration of the college at all levels, be it students' discipline or academics.

Read the news given and know about the 'responsible' individuals that I have added at the end!

God save the college from EVIL DOERS!

Students given answer key instead of question paper
The examination was rescheduled for May 15

MADURAI: Students of a reputed autonomous college in the city had a strange experience on Thursday when they sat for their semester examination.
Instead of the question paper, the second year B.Sc. (physics) students were given answer key which is meant for answer paper evaluation.
The answer key has hints for evaluators and that is the guideline for answer paper correction.
College sources told The Hindu that the UG students were to write the 'Life Skills and PC Maintenance' paper. But, by mistake, the college authorities took photocopies of the answer key of that paper and distributed them to students in the examination hall at 8 a.m.
The students too had initially started writing and after a few minutes they realised that something was wrong and conveyed it to the invigilator. After nearly an hour, the college's Controller of Examinations took up the issue with the higher authorities and the examination was rescheduled for May 15.
A senior professor, when contacted, said that usually a couple of photocopies of answer key for question paper is taken by a college for giving them to the internal and external evaluators who are called for paper valuation. In this particular case, the college would have taken photocopies of the answer key instead of the question paper and distributed them to students.

I am very sorry to say that the reputed college is none other than The American College.
The college’s Controller of Examination is none other than Prof. Robson, Head of the Physics Department (whose son is currently studying in the college, how come he was appointed for this post when his son is studying,  floating autonomy rules! ethically he should not have accepted the post leave alone the rules!).
The higher authorities mentioned were none other than the illegal occupant Dr. M. Davamani Christober (the late  CSI  Bishop Asir’s son-in-law)
