Abstract

In this era when the distance between knowledge and a ‘receiving’ mind is supersonically getting diminished, one is certainly compelled to think about the criteria of a ‘receiving’ mind. Since this is that duration of the year when educational institutions invite fresh admissions or ‘receiving’ minds, I will try to share my views, experiences and observations on the phenomenon of ‘admission’ particularly in the light of musical eligibility. It might be a common theme of educational write-ups but is a vital one in today’s academic context, especially in the field of performing arts.
