How thoughtful of you to give facts about Minnesota. However, GBPAUT does not have either the reputation or the impact on development of either UP or now Uttaranchal or India as a whole to justify a lot of enthusias. Perhaps because of American influence. the Gbpuat has been focussing on the problesm of large size farms and neglecting the problems of small and marginal farms who are in majority in UP. Actually, now GBUAT is a state university of Uttaranchal. What experieence or capabilities GBPAUT has of dealing with hill agriculture and horticulture etc. I recall my own days as Vice Chancellor, GBPAYT. On my insistaance a lot of infrastructure was created at the Ranichauri hill campus. It, however, did not persuade the mandarins of the Pantnagar campus to take up research programmes for hill areas. In my opinion, GBPAUT is standing at the threshold of a new opportunity and challenge. It it reivents itself consciously and with the jumility expected of an intellectuals and research establishment, it will create a global niche for itself. A couple of years back, I sggested to the senior faculty to formulate papers on the challenges of Hill developemtn and then set up teams to explore how various issues could be addressed. This could give a great fillip not only to the economy of Uttaranchal but also to the economies of all the hill states and areas, especially the North Eastern Region, which is a problem region because we have not been able to do much for increasing their productivity and their economy. Much of the insurgency in this region is because of unemployment due to a low level of economic activities. I do not have ready made answers but if people in the GBPAUT are not a self serving lot, they must accept the challenge inherent in their university having become an institution financed by the poor people of Uttaranchal. The fact that this is a very difficult challenge should not make the academics of GBPAUT run away. If they are as great as they think they are, they must join battle with the problems of low level of resource endowments, smallness of holdings, inadequate infrastructure, paucity of capital and genral backwardness. Once they accept the challenge, the ecitement of fighting such a heroic battle will take them to great heights of performance. The million dollar question is whether the GBPAUT will joint this battle? Frankly I have great doubts and would be very happy if you Pantnagrians assure me that GBPAUT is willing and ready for this essentially MULTIDISCIPLINARY and difficult but exciting task.
