Class performance is graded... The Indians grab the opportunity and torpedo the professor with questions that he would not have prepared and if required put questions to him that do not even pertain to his subject...
One guy, an Indian, during the Operational Business class, argued with the professor for 30 minutes straight, why it is absolutely unimportant to reason with your kids and how a nice sound bashing will mould them into great people... "Future leaders"....
If there are limits to popularity, we had just crossed them and Indians and their bashed up kids had become the talk of the class... Yeah!! I always wanted to be in-FAMOUS....
I realized a marked difference between us and the west... The Indians though get the best grades and are unparallelled at handling numbers, were incapable of attaching theories to real life practical situations; something that the others seemed to do with ease... We were just too rigid... We struggled to break free of the infinite social constraints that were embedded deep into us... Our complex social structure was limiting our capability to think freely...
Though we all know what lateral thinking is, do we all understand it or even if we do understand it, do we practice it? We need to break free of the society, look at it from the outside and only then can we assume an impartial view and look to improve the society...
