PJU launches 25 year integrated MA programme

Encouraged by the response in mainstream media that its students are getting, Pandith Jawharlal University today launched an integrated 25 year MA (Leadership and Public speaking) course in the national capital amidst much fanfare. The first 10 years of the programme will be on-campus, and expose the students to some undisclosed conceptual constructs that would be vital to succeed in the second phase i.e. a quick 10 years of leadership training. The last five years is called the 'fiery leadership' training and there would be a module focused on fieriness, said the press release issued at the event.
Youngsters like the 45 year old Kamhaia Kumar and Oomur Khaleid, 43, rejoiced at the launch and said that migrating to this integrated course from their ongoing 10 year sociology masters, would give them an extended period of time at campus, where their skills would be fine-tuned in their upcoming formative years. Some political parties may nominate their youth wing leaders to pursue this programme. Shri Ragul Gandy, when asked for his comments, however, said that he would consider himself too young to undertake this course and would first learn the ropes in small baby steps. The Student Union President, Shri Sheetal Rashid, 85, had to skip the event to prepare for her BA finals.
The press conference was interrupted by a PJU Student protest rally showing solidarity with a little known movement called Gurgaon Azaad karo, which seeks nationhood for Gurgaon to solve its traffic problems.
