growth and our institute has some of the best
facilities across all other colleges/institutes in
India. So, we encourage students to take up
whatever interests them, and we request you to
support them in their choices. There is enough
time in a normal IIT student’s day to fit in both
academics and extracurricular activities without
much stress. But, at the same time, it is advised
that care must be taken to ensure proper time
management such that academics are not neglected
because of such activities.","A mandatory word of caution though: do not
sacrifice your academics for the sake of extra-
curricular activities; prioritize your interests
and allocate your time wisely. That being said, we
do hope you enjoy every bit of your 4/5 years

major part of your college lives.",1

EXCHANGE Every IIT has its own centres of
excellence. A student can now go and spend a
semester or two at one of his/her preferred IITs.
The credits earned during the stay will be
exchanged. The benefits of the Inter IIT Semester
Exchange program are that students gain access to
new courses, new ways of learning and new
facilities, which are not available in their own
institute. Each institute can send a maximum of
two students for one semester to each of the other
two institutes. Hence, each IIT can have a maximum
of 4 outgoing students and a maximum of 4 incoming
students. Students have to pay tuition fees at the
home institute. The host institute will provide
the visitor appropriate accommodation on-campus
for the entire duration of their visit. However,
students will have to bear own costs for the
living expenses (including accommodation) at the
host institute. The process differs to
international exchanges in the way that instead of
looking for active MoUs on the IR website, the
interested student has to approach the IR office

how can I setup my LDAP ID,"2\. The following important points may please be
noted: The FORWARDING ADDRESS will have to be
setup by the users themselves. Pl donot ask CC
staff to change it on your behalf. After the LDAP
id is marked ""FORWARDINGONLY"" CC has no
responsibility about the MAILBOX contents. Access
to such mailboxes may be permitted on a ""as-is""
basis against payment of a fee (currently Rs
1000/-). After the GRACE PERIOD, LDAP records of
the users will be examined and all LDAP ids who
donot have FORWARDING ADDRESS will be terminated
(hence the ids will be free for use by new users)
with immediate effect. After the GRACE PERIOD is
over, the account will be marked as FORWARDINGONLY
and thereafter no login is possible on the webmail
server and the BIGHOME server. Only NEWSGROUP
access is permissible. The NEWSGROUP ACCESS
profile of all such users will be monitored. All
ids that show continuous no-access period of three
months or more will be marked as “INACTIVE” and
will be phased out. To avoid being treated as
inactive, the FORWARDINGONLY account holders must
ensure that they do not have inactivity periods of
more than three months.",https://www.cc.iitb.ac.in/," **Q. How do I setup pine to read my webmail mails
?** To set up pine to use central MAILBOXes at
imap.iitb.ac.in as your mail repository do the
following : 1. Go to setup->configure 2. set
smtp server as **smtp-auth.iitb.ac.in/tls/user=xxx
(xxx is your LDAP id)** 3. **inbox-path:
{imap.iitb.ac.in/ssl/novalidate-cert}** 4. now
exit setup. 5. Now you should be able to access
the Webmail mailboxes, make folders on webmail
IMAP server etc. If you are using Webmail
mailboxes from any computer, all the outgoing
emails would have the ID as
yourloginname[at]iitb.ac.in. For example, if you
set the pine at venus.che.iitb.ac.in to check your
mails at webmail and you have login-name
'hemantrm' on venus.che but the login-name
'hemant' at Webmail, then all the mails would go
as hemantrm[at]iitb.ac.in. To change this do the
following:-pine -> Setup -> Config -> Customized
headers (it's somewhere at the end). There, press
enter and write the following - From: your-
username-at-webmail[at]iitb.ac.in and save and
exit pine. Now all the mails would go as
hemant[at]iitb.ac.in even if I have login-name
hemantrm at the server from where the pine is
configured to check mails at Webmail.",https://www.cc.iitb.ac.in/,1

So how and where can I access the Internet? Hostel LAN Access The most preferred option. All hostel rooms have a LAN Port which you can use to connect to the IIT Bombay network and to the Internet, provided you have a computer. Just hook your computer up to the LAN port with a cable, and you should be connected to the network. Once that’s done, there are two ways to access the Internet.",https://smp.gymkhana.iitb.ac.in/life_culture.php,0
