On the one hand it definitely it is a matter that DLIS, University of Mysore witnessed an intellectual event of such magnitude of five research scholars being awarded the Ph.D. degrees.
As a former research scholar it is indeed a matter of great pride seeing the scholarly achievements of DLIS, University of Mysore.
On the other hand, it saddens me a lot to read the "Tailpiece" of the message which is written in absolute bad taste. It appears to an outsider like one pitching against the other in order to derive some sadistic pleasure.
Such "Tailpiece" statements can jeopardize the reputation of DLIS.
The views expressed by the sender of this message are purely his personal
observation and need not be taken as general.

Congratulations to the Five Some MyDLIS PhD scholars!
It was celebrations time at the Department of Library and Information Science (MyDLIS), University of Mysore, Mysore, when four PhD scholars appeared for the defense of their theses one after the other on a same day ie: 26 Nov'2013 and another one on 23rd of December 2013. Totally five PhD are awarded in a span of almost a month (from 26/11/13 to 23/12/2013) which is unusual at MyDLIS. The 2013 year end, lucky five are: 1. Dr.Devendra (Guide: Prof. Khaiser Nikam) 2. Dr.Jaykumara (Guide: Prof. Khaiser Nikam) 3. Dr. Vinod Kumar B L (Guide: Prof. Khaiser Nikam) 4. Smt Shanaz Kademzadeh (Guide: Prof. Khaiser Nikam) & 5. Dr. Bhojaraju Gunjal (Guide: Prof. Shalini R Urs):
Dr. Devendra worked on " Attitudes of Law Library Users towards the use of OPAC and Web OPAC in South India: A Study" Dr. Jaykumara worked on " Attitudes of Young Adults towards Public Library Services in Karnataka: A Study� Dr.Vinod Kumar B L worked on "Design and Development of Information Support System for Yogic Sciences with emphasis on Knowledge Organization" Dr. Bhojaraju Gunjal worked on "Knowledge Organization Systems In Digital Libraries: A Case of ETDs " Smt. Shanaz Kademzadeh worked on " Collection Development in Scientific and Research Institute Libraries in Iran: A Study"
The presentations were scholarly and the new MLISc seminar hall was full with all the Faculty Members, Students, Research Scholars and invitees. Nearly 100 people attended the Internal Open Viva Voce. In general there was good interaction. The candidates answered questions satisfactorily. The issues raised in the course of interaction will go a long way in further improving the existing work of the scholars and act as tips to those who are going to complete their PhD work shortly. The external examiners were Prof. B S Maheshwarappa; Prof.B D Kumbar; Prof.NeelaDeshpande; Prof. Md. Shafi, Prof. D K Gupta. Prof. D Chandran and Prof.V T Kamble. All of them did a splendid job by critically evaluating the work and appreciating the strengths of the theses.
Tailpiece !!
For the healthy competitors it was an inspiring moment and for the envious it was the story of �Grapes are Sour" and for the Cynic it was time to" grouse and grumble"
The Report is approved by the Board of Studies Chairman (Prof. Khaiser Nikam) and is prepared purely for academic purpose.
