==SNIST==
===Sree Nidhi Institute of Science and Technology===
SNIST stands for Sree Nidhi Institute of Science and Technology. This, as you might have guessed is the official name for the college.
There are many unofficial Long forms of SNIST that will not be mentioned here because of the abundance of hatred and expletives that they contain.
SNIST is located about twenty kilometers from one remote corner of [[Hyderabad]], a wonderfully mental city, at a place called yamnampet, close to ghatkesar.
The easiest way to reach SNIST is to take a train leaving from [[Secunderabad]](another wonderfully mental town) station and jump off the train about twenty minutes into your journey.
You haven't a very good chance of making it alive, but you'll still be in better condition when compared to most of the students inside the college.
SNIST was started in 1995, a result of a great (in length, not idea) dream by a very bored soul.
The college has a perpetual "work in progress" look about it, which makes it very distinctive, and all the more hate-able for the students.
The students of SNIST are either very unlucky or very stupid(sometimes both). The college is run by a bunch of anal warts, all of whom are extremely unhelpful and very stupid (and mostly underqualified).
Students from this college, however manage to do quite well for themselves. This fact, by itself, proves that the whole concept of college education is complete BS.
The SNIST web-site can be viewed at [http://www.snist.com snist-official-website]
It is an absolutely useless website, and is often used as an example of "how not to design a web-page" by the students and lecturers of many colleges.
Some seriously useful information about snist can however be viewed at [http://snist03.blogspot.com snist-un-official-website] where a small bunch of hilarious students have posted what now happens to be the most popular pieces of text about SNIST on the www.
===What you need to watch out for : ===
====== Football ground======
The road into the college leads right up to a small land-mass that might have once looked a
little like a playing field, but now has degenerated into a large mole-infested ant-hill.
====== Campus-wide Wireless network======
A new campus wide network has been installed recently at the college at the cost of a neat
one Crore Rs. This network is, at present, being used by a grand total of four computers,
and one laptop.
====== Basketball court======
The SNIST basketball court is ridiculed at almost every basketball tournament in the city,
and the management of the college has been promising "a new concrete court next year" for
the past six years.
====== Canteen======
The SNIST canteen has been likened to (a) A generator room (b) A cycle stand (c) The
work-men's quarters and (d) Staff toilets
If you value your stomach and your life, you will be well advised to not visit this place
no matter how hungry you may be.
====== Staff======
Staff at SNIST range from ridiculously underqualified 20 year olds, who cannot speak a word
of English to Senile old men who passed the age of retirement before the second world war
(not surprisingly, they are under-qualified too).
====== Clock-tower======
Actually, if you do manage to find this clocktower, please do fill this in.

====== Toilets======
The toilets here can not be described. They have to been seen to be believed. I'm sorry, but
such is life.
===JNTU===
An article about SNIST would never be complete without a reference to the university it comes under.
[[JNTU]] Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University
This university is known for consistently inconsistent paper evaluations, myriads of unknown colleges in bewildering locations, sporadic cultural and sports activities, and general nonsense.
