What makes for 'excellence'?

The photograph below was taken in front of a lavatory in one of the most elite educational institutions in this country, one of our 'centres of excellence'. Comment unnecessary.

Hahahaha! I just can't stop laughing. Where is it, Sir? Durgapur? Kolkata? Which part of West Bengal if the place is indeed in West Bengal?

I'll tell you privately, Sayan. Don't want to mention it in a public forum.

Hullo, And after a decent interval following my gaffe - that pic and the word if they really go together can only mean that Roman Catholic priests and the vicars from the Agatha Christie tales, and only those priests and vicars trundling very large suitcases (that oblong object near the frocked figure can only be a very large suitcase) along with them can enter that door....

I'm still curious as to what the door meant for the females had as a sign...

I read this recently:
Dear Engineers,

The thermometer is not the only thing that gets a degree without having a brain.

Yours truly,
Anyone but an Engineer
