Ten things I hated in IIT in no particular order:
1) The academic section and anything that involved getting a letter cross-signed by Fac-Ad, HOD, Officer in Charge, Dean Students, Registrar all on the same sheet of paper (Go Green IIT!)
2) Tendency of groups working on a particular thing to form closed cliques recruiting and working only within that clique.
3) Elections and all associated savagery. In the end if you look at it, nothing much comes out of it in terms of new buildings or different ideas.
4) No parking space for local students (is it so difficult to open up an area and CHARGE for parking instead of asking to pay fines?)
5) Himalaya, Mess Grub coupons, associated signatures. Miss the bonhomie of our first year.
6) Vetti pseud putting junta (associated point 2).
7) IIT Smart card, never use it and pay 500 bucks if you lose/break it. Now there's a deal!
8) Computer Game addicts (nothing against the games, just that you shouldn't get addicted... please)
9) Wing politics (there also ah!!!)
10) No interaction with the society around us. We could've designed so many things for people in villages/poor localities/infrastructure etc, but its not been on our agenda. No one's fault though.

TNR for point 8.
@shoban
well, there was a 11th point and that was people who stay at home rather than in the hostel.. :P
Point 8 should probably be linked to Point 6, too. :)
Last I heard, the smart card costed 1000 for replacement.
@sameer
