Annexure I

BEST PRACTICES

GO GREEN…SAVE EARTH

Goal:

a) To inculcate awareness on environmental issues

b) To train students to become protectors of Nature and to make a difference to

the endangered Planet Earth

c) To make the campus more green by initiating the plantation programmes.

d)To make all stakeholders aware of hazards related to use of plastic and other

non degradable pollutants.

e)To spread the message of greening and cleanliness

The Context. In the present era, the Environmental pollution has posed a great

threat to the existence of living creatures. Global Warming, Greenhouse gases,

Ozone layer depletion, Eco-imbalance, etc., are referred every now and then.

The happenings today unless checked or channeled will destroy the earth if not

now but in not too distant a future. There has been a thrust on the protection of

environment the world over as it is over utilised and polluted. . If the future

generation is to be saved from environmental catastrophy, nature‟s gift has to be

preserved in the natural form. The proper balance of the ecosystem is the need of

the hour. Conservation of the life sustaining elements is the desperate need of the

hour. Students can play an important role to protect environment. We want our

students to be good not only in academics but also to become responsible and

mature citizens of this great country by protecting the environment.

4. The Practice:

o the students of IV Semester B.A./B.Sc. study the Environmental Studies as

Compulsory Subject.

There are a number of projects undertaken by faculty and students on ecological

concerns in addition to a number of publications.

o Faculty engaged in UGC Minor Projects.

o Every effort is taken to keep the campus green and clean. The institution

understands the need to preserve Earth.

o Saplings have been planted in collaboration with the Departments of Forests in

the campus. Plants and shrubs; medicinal plants are visible in the campus.

o Students are encouraged to be active members of the Nature Club/Eco-Club.


o The garden committee of the Institution has been allotted specific job to maintain

greenery and cleanliness.

o Care is taken to keep the campus, pollution and plastic free.

o There is a separate parking lot.

o There are dustbins in strategic places with a system of effective waste disposal.

o Students are encouraged to keep their classrooms and common spaces clean.

The NSS, Scouts & guides, faculty and the students involve in maintaining

cleanliness under the slogan-Swatch Bharath, Nirmal Bharath.

5. Evidence of Success:

The evidence of the success of the practice is the green and clean campus itself.

The Chairperson of the Nature Club was organizing the relevant prorammes. Later

it is renamed as Eco-Club.

Water harvesting, poster presentation, students‟ participation in seminars on the

themes of Nature/Environment, field visits,

Above all, the trees, lawns and hedges, botanical and medicinal gardens, the

pollution free campus are all proud testimonials to show the green mission

envisaged by the Institution.

6. Problems:

o Availability of time is the main constraint in the implementation of the practice.

o The tight schedule of the semester system provides very little spare time.

Now-a days, gardening has become a costly affair, hence necessary funding is to

be earmarked, especially during summer.

Scarcity of water in a region like ours.


EMPOWERING WOMEN

Goals :

1. To empower the role of girl students in the society.

2. To bring awareness on various women oriented issues.

3. To bring equilibrium among the Boys & Girls for co-existence.

CONTEXT

Most of the times, the discrimination and gender inequality are noticed all over.

The Women(girls) do not enjoy equal status in education, society or in the

profession. This imbalance has weaken the women. Education changes the lives of

those who embrace it. Education is a tool to empower oneself and a way towards

achieving goals. It is a strength to maneuver (plan) all the actions so as to

establish oneself. It provides decision making capabilities, ensures free mobility

and builds up a safe environment. The educational institutions should aim at

assuring such capability among the girl-students so as to reduce figuring in the

Head lines/top stories of media.

THE PRACTICE: The College has the Anti-Ragging Cell and Sexual Harassment

Cell being operated under the banner of Women Empowerment Cell. Equal

Opportunity Cell and the Ladies‟ Association have also been functioning to

empower the women ( girls)by organizing various programmes. The chairpersons

take special interest in the selection of guests and programmes.
