Alarmed at the dysfunctional, "non-social" and reclusive lifestyle of its students, the IITB administration has decided to ban internet access in all its hostels between 11 pm and 12:30 pm from March 12, 2007.

Is DAIICT headed towards some sort of a similar fate? Seems likely. And may be, just may be, it is time the institute took this drastic step. Things are not that good here. Students are already pissed off with the type of placements we get to see but there might be reasons that we tend to overlook. A complex situation it is. Hopefully things will improve in next couple of years.
Definitely we have some Profs sulky enough to enforce something like this.
24 hrs internet access definitely has its negatives. Just look up the dc++ repertoire of myriad things. It is mind-boggeling indeed. All that time can be put somewhere else. This will at least get us better speeds. :)
