Who let the dogs out?”.... It was the outburst of boundless feelings to be the champs in the BATTLE OF MINDS 2007. Before that, it was a dream and afterwards it came true. “Impossible is Nothing” if you deserve and desire” was the undefeated belief of the winning team of Business Administration Discipline, Khulna University.

The journey had started when we were selected from our department to face the real battle of BATTLE OF MINDS 2007 with the commitment to be only the champion and nothing less. Grooming session on 19th December was really an exciting time acquiring new experiences all the time. I myself usually don't sing. Because people may mistake by thinking a frog is croaking but that day was the first day that I sang a rock song and also danced on the stage!!! It was really a rocking session. Finally we got the topic “Reviving Shrimp Industry In Khulna” for presentation. From that day our voyage started with SHRIMP. We began to cultivate the shrimp in our mind, even in our dream. Our Eid festival became the Shrimp festival by travelling from Khulna to Shatkhira to Bagherhat and other regions in Khulna for Shrimp purpose.

It was 29th December, semi-final round for Battle of Minds 2007. The day ended for us with the desired ticket for the Grand Final through a very strong contest. Our dream was half way to be true and we were eagerly waiting for the Grand Final. But an unpredictable accident occurred just three days before leaving Khulna for Dhaka. All the data and the documents we prepared for the final were destroyed in two computers by the evil virus. We were devastated!! How can it happen at a time like this!!! No back-up copy, only a portion was in a pen-drive!!! We came back from that SIDR with the belief that “Impossible is Nothing” and started all over again.

Then came the Dooms day, who will be the champs…. The presentation session was like what we expected. Finally heartbeats began to climb up with the announcement of the result. When the crown of BATTLE OF MINDS 2007 has come to us, I could not forget that very rare moment of my life and also could not recall what I have done.

Our friends were ready for a grand celebration and were waiting for us to reach Khulna. On 31st January we got together to celebrate. It was a magnificent day with fun, jokes, clapping, cake cutting and finally a sumptuous lunch. The day ended with “Who Let the Dogs Out,” which is the strength of the vibrant BAD (Business Administration Discipline) System.

The story is like this: once a Royal Bengal Tiger woke up in the southern region and by defeating all the tigers of the country came to its den and proved that Royal Bengal is the King of Tigers.
