A few days back, I heard rickshaw drivers outside the metro station call out to exiting kids with a "NSIT-IIIT!"*.
Finally, my college has made a name for itself.
*Those unfamiliar with rickshaw drivers: they were calling out possible destinations for the kids, places where they might possible want to go, and thus, places where the drivers will take them.
Those unfamiliar with my college: It's operating out of a transit campus that belongs to NSIT. Technically, if you just said you had to go to NSIT, that would be enough for the drivers cuz it's the same thing. NSIT's campus is IIIT's campus. But no, they said "NSIT-IIIT"! You realise the prestige that bestows on IIIT-Delhi? It means it has a separate identity (as a location) of its own!
It's a big deal, I swear.
