Looking back, sometimes we get scared of few personalities for no reason. To me, Sheshadri (who handled Genetics course) was one such personality during B.Sc time. I had a very unique, mixed experience with him.
I guess, during second year, we fought with BE-Ag group, and some-how, I was badly involved in that fight (the beer bottle based Bom was my design/execution). Sheshadri, being the warden, have fully understood that I was one of the activists. Hence he had a very bad opinion about me (obviously). Not really sure, why he sent me out of the class twice for no real reason, which made me to get anger on him. During the practical exam time, he called one-by-one for viva, while I was thinking that he is going to trouble me. As expected, instead of questioning, he started sarcastically, "I know all about you, I can make you to get D grade, you don't deserve to study.". I got shooted-up, why this man connects personal into grades, and replied to him, "Sir, you can NOT give me D.". He smiled and said, "Do you want to challenge me ?". I said, "Sir, I don't think you can give D, if don't submit my paper" and came out of the examination hall, without submitting. I got F grade in both the genetics course exams later.
