Student Gets Punched During Lecture
A report on an incident not published in the school's newspapers, Nanyang Chronicle and NTU Tribune.
A most unusual incident occured during last Tuesday's Computing lecture at LT1A. The lecture started on time at 1230pm and everything seemed to be going on as usual. The China students sitting infront were paying attention to the Lecturer with a HongKong accent... The rest of the Sporean students were either falling asleep, while some brave ones tried to stay awake to figure out how to use the Numeric Array Function in C programming. It seemed like a typical engineering lecture where the lecturer with bad articulation and pronounciation rattled on while students started falling asleep in the lecture theatre.
At around 1250pm while the lecture was underway, a male student jumped onto his chair and shouted these words to a another male student who was sitting directly behind him "Zuo ren bu yao tai xia lan!" What followed was the student grabbing the t-shirt of the same student and dealing a punch to his face. The student who was punched did not retaliate but took off his spectacles which had been severly damaged when the punch was inflicted. Coincidentally, the lecturer did not notice the incident and carried on as usual. The male victim who was obviously distraught by then remained in his seat while his friend who was siting beside him sympathetically offered him a packet of tissue for his bleeding nose which bled for the rest of the lecture. The student attacker and his victim remained in his seat for the rest of the lecture and acted as if nothing had happened.
While the identity of the attacker is not known, it is said that his victim is a resident of NTU's Hall of Residence 2 and a year 1 student from the College of Engineering.
