Maan... I thought such things were happening to me only. Though my focus was on getting a partner for my research/hacking escapades. I joined up university in great expectations that I will have to pick people from a fair sized pool of like minded people based on their compatible attitude. But I was so disappointed when I got to see a bunch of uninspired students which care less about anything above and beyond there curriculum. Then one of my seniors bluntly told me to stop looking for such people because I am just wasting my time. There were people with entrepreneur attitude, he being one had started a cheap tech magazine, its successful just because students will rather by a Rs20 livewire with 50 pages than a Rs120 digit with 100 pages of which they read only 40-50%. But hacking and independent research was just not the cup of tea of these get-the-job type people. He gave me a very good advise, instead of finding people of such talent I should develop on my own and then show people how much fun it is. Chances are that some people may join in.
