SU mismanagement

Published January 22, 2018

ABOUT a month ago one of my friends after having completed his last semester wanted to take out his degree as soon as possible so that he could get a job.

He borrowed money and, as instructed, within a few days he was through with every signature to every challan and every document to every stamp, according to the given procedure.

After a month, he did not get his degree, rather a note from the Sindh University authorities who had misplaced his documents. Now he was asked to go through the same procedure all over again. What a solemn piece of advice.
