And this whole thing that Tintin has of having an entirely different culture and set-up from the rest of the university makes no sense. The whole university functions according to certain principles and codes of behaviour. The English department is under Jadavpur University and is obligated to function exactly the same as the other departments. Tintin cannot have a separate set of ways of going about life for the English department. There are no problems in the other departments, because they adhere to the same system. No other department has this culture of “fun” that Tintin has created. Then why is Tintin being listened to? Tintin is not above the whole university where he can dictate terms. Tintin has to follow the norms of the university just like everyone else. He cannot speak above the norms of the university. The whole reason the English department is so sickening is because the norms of the university are not adhered to here.
