In the evening, groups of parents could be seen waiting at the college for the final admission list for the economics and chemistry honours courses, interviews for which had been completed on Saturday. Till late Sunday night, however, no list had come out.

Sources in the college said the list had been sent to the bishop of Delhi for scrutiny -- again, something that has never happened before. Said a senior teacher: ``The recommendations for both courses had been finalized on Saturday evening and sent to the pro tem administrator."
