Best Practices (A)
Title of Practice - Regular Prayer
Right from the inception of the institution we observe the tradition of prayer at 8:45 to 9:00 a.m.
Objectives of Practice Nurturing value system, spiritual enlightenment and moral consciousness are the guiding objectives behind this practice.
The students enrolled in the college belong to different religion, caste but at the time of prayer session they all join together with full devotion which symbolizes the spirit of unity in diversity. We feel that this practice promotes secularism, large-heartedness and spirit of universal brotherhood.
The Context: In the modern materialistic world moral and spiritual values are at stake. The impact of westernization so severe that the young generation is turning rootless, forgetting the real values of life, hence arises the need and necessity to give them right direction and channelize their energy properly. We realize that the observance of daily prayer in the college strengthens them morally and spiritually inculcating in them the Sanskara like pity and patience, compassion and kindness, co-operation and team spirit much needed in the present scenario.
Evidence of Success: The successful execution of this noble practice has inspired other institutions to follow this practice in their colleges also. The renowned guests, visiting our college are also impressed with this tradition.
The inclusion of shlokas in the prayer has helped the students improve Sanskrit pronunciation. Some of our students have won prizes in intercollegiate Shloka-path-pratiyogita. (Shloka Recitation Competition)
Problems Encountered and resources Required - Better results can be attained if we conduct this practice in the assembly hall or auditorium but time constraint prohibits us to do so.
We are still taking efforts and seeking ways to make this practice more effective, useful and worthy.
Notes: The noble practice might as well we adopted and implemented as one of the best practices in other institutions also.
Best Practices (B)
Title of the Practice: Maintaining strong bonding with Alumnae.
The college maintains a strong bond of faith and trust with Alumnae.
Objectives of this Practice: This practice of maintaining of strong bond with alumnae stands in direct relation with the vision and mission of the institution, which focuses on the shaping of integrated personality of the students.
The Context: Through this bonding the students realize their accountability not only for the institution but for the society at large also. They are made to believe that actual joy lies not “in getting but in giving”.
The Practice: we conduct regular meetings with alumnae. Their views and suggestions are duly considered and implemented. The uniqueness of this practice in the context of our institution is that it has taken a praiseworthy move by organizing alumnae lecture-series-week every year. Through this they deliver lecture on their area of specialization which proves to be a great source of inspiration for the students. They establish a rapport with alumnae and feel free to discuss their problems and queries and exchange their views, enlarging the horizon of their knowledge. Apart from this, our alumnae an ever connected to various activities and programmes arranged in the college. Recently we have adopted the practice of inviting our alumnae for adjudging the academic events arranged in the college. Now we have begun on line alumnae registration.
Evidence of Success: The evidence of success is realized in the form of outstanding list of alumnae who are not only well-qualified but well-placed also. Along with their successful professional life, they are also sparing time for rendering valuable social services and extension services. They are a great asset for the college, supporting it as one of the strongest pillars.
Problems encountered and resources Required: Though we have made provision for online registration of alumnae yet the result is not quite satisfactory. We have realized the need to raise alumnae fund urgently. Most of alumnae are employed, hence arranging regular meetings with good attendance becomes a hurdle. Communication gap sometimes creates new problems. To overcome this challenge we have taken the step to organize the meeting on Sundays but that also could not bring desired results.
