Favouritism is it Real?

Hello guys, I hope you are having a great day and enjoying my blogs.

Today, we are going to talk about favoritism and whether you’ve ever had any experiences like the one I’m about to share with you. So, let’s dig into it.

For those of you who don’t know, I’m a college student, and today I came across something funny yet serious. We had our winter vacation, and it’s been about two weeks since the new semester started. Today, we had a seminar where we were told that two students were going to be awarded participation certificates for submitting articles.

Well, that’s great — but after the seminar, I asked some students from my department if they had also submitted articles through some platform. I was astonished to learn that our department head had only messaged those two students individually during the vacation and didn’t even inform other students about this opportunity. At first, I thought maybe the seats were limited, but I later found out that more than 15 students from each department had been selected.

This really hit me because I remembered something from before the end of our seminar. One of the participants had mentioned preparing an article. When I asked him if I could take part as well, he told me the next day that the professor had declined and said the opportunity was just meant for him. So, I let it go — but now I know that it wasn’t a limited participation opportunity after all.

Now, I’m applying to various article competitions available online, and I’m determined to win something more than just a participation certificate. I want to have my photo with the reward — right in front of that professor. If anyone of you know abot any other opportunities please do share for everyone in the community.

Thank you, everyone, for reading. Blogging has been a great way for me to speak my mind and share my experiences with all of you. I would be so glad if you shared your own experiences with favoritism, whether you were on the receiving end or the other side of the coin.
