    This classroom looks familiar. I may have taken a class or two here. The cattle often strayed into the (open) corridors but I can’t recall them actually straying into the classrooms. Other IITs had peacocks and deer. We had cattle.https://twitter.com/MumbaiMirror/status/1155462915169775617 …

        We had baboons who would visit our statistical mechanics class and would be more awake than I ever was.

        We often had a dog attend classes with us in the Elec dept. He would come in with all of us when the lectures started and sit quietly at the back and leave when everybody left after the last lecture. Never disturbed the class and students and faculty both didn't mind him

        Lucky it wasn't a leopard! Apparently IITB had a few of those due to its proximity to a national park. Even crocs due to Lake Powai. Yes, we had deer and peacocks at IITM :-)
