i´m writing this entry after reading what a friend of mine has written.
i typed Vidyaranya (my school) and LFJC (my junior college) on google and it took me here. Here are some excerpts (and my comments in brackets). Of course, i am biased. Who isn´t?
Vidyaranya
a
absence of uniform
Little Flower Junior College
For aspiring engineers and doctors and even commerce wannabes in the city
primarily known for brilliant academic results
state ranks in Intermediate and EAMCET are a way of life
life at LFJC is mostly about academics and hard work
"temple of knowledge" ( if that is what they consider knowledge they are sadly mistaken)
Each class usually has around seventy students (please compare with Vidyaranya)
The creativity extends, though only in a fleeting way, to literary and artistic areas, too. There are a few popular intra-college cultural events in the course of the year (and the rest of the time the students are forced to slog)
And after the college chose to be co-ed, there is a lot more intra-student interaction than in the earlier days! ( ha ha ha! co-ed, cojones! i was reprimanded for having spoken to the boys in the class, the p.t sir´s only job was to keep an eye on the students and always separate the boys from the girls)
the best junior college in town for all the career-oriented (exactly! not suitable for those who want a life.)

Vidyaranya
a
absence of uniform
a
the value system of our children
a
exams are not conducted until the students reach class eight
a
emphasis on learning rather than on clearing exams
a
student-teacher ratio ranges between 18:1 and 25:1
a
atmosphere of celebration
a
classrooms are large and spacious, with colorful charts and cutouts
a
Craft, clay-modeling, singing, gymnastics and pottery classes
a
basketball and football
a
each child is unique and different
a
no ranking system
a
freedom is the key word
a
explore and understand their world
a
But one does wonder how they'll fit into the world once they pass out of school. (This is an often asked question. The answer: we´re here in this world with the rest, we don´t live in ghettos...we´ve fitted in.)
