About The Town:
Kanakapura town, one of the Taluk Headquarters in Ramanagara District, in 56 kms from Bangalore, the capital city of Karnataka State. It has been identified one among the backward regions of the state. The entire Taluk is predominantly rural, the main occupation being sericulture. Scanty rains have made agriculture a struggle and majority of the farmers‟ life is in miserable condition. Places of historical importance like Mekedatu, Muthathi, Sangam and Shivanasamudra are located within a radius of 50 kms.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE RURAL EDUCATION SOCIETY
Poojya Sri S. Kariappahad long ago made up his mind to bring literacy to his people after his graduation. Communication was literally absent in those days and there was no high school within a radius of 30 miles
Sri S. Kariappastarted his pioneering journey towards higher education byRegistering Rural Education Society in 1941. He was the first graduate in the Taluk. He devotedhis life for the upliftment of the unlettered in KanakapuraTaluk. He started the institution in a small hut following the path of the greatleaders of the nation like Mahatma Gandhi. His friends, Sri K.SubbaRao andSri Gurikar Rangegowda,willingly donated prime land where the institutions stand today. Sri S. Kariappa‟spatriotism and adherence to Gandhian ideologies became legendry and the spirit of nationalism and freedom movement pervaded the air of Rural Education Society. News spread far and wide students started joining from different corners of the taluk, district and neighboring districts also.
Presently there are 7 institutions on the sprawling campus of 21.5 acres of theRural Education Society. The present management is headed by Sri

K.GThimmappa. He is leading a 14 member team of dedicated people who are supportive and cooperative while striving hard to achieve the goals set by the institution‟s founder.
BRIEF HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE:
The Rural College was started in June 1955 by late Sri S. Kariappa, a trueGandhian. The College stood up for higher education vying with colleges that were few and far between in those days. The early days of the college were adventuresome with primitive facilities. People of the Taluk were still apprehensive about higher education and only a handful of girl studentsenrolled while renowned educationists were full of admiration and had a special place for Sri S. Kariappa in their hearts, and they supported him.
The college truly became a beacon of enlightenment and boys and girls fromeverycorner of the Taluk as well as neighboring taluks streamed in, in quest Of learning.
It was only a science college in the beginning. Students of this Taluk had to go to Bangalore or Mysore for pursuing B.Sc. Degree. The Founder President, Sri. S Kariappa identified this need and started the institution as a Science college. But gradually the demand of the local population for Arts and Commerce increased in 1965 Arts and Commerce courses were started. Degree course in Management was started in the year 2000. To make the Rural College, a campus of excellence, PG courses were started. In 2011 MAinKannada and MA in History courses were started. Again in 2012 M.Com course was started.
The college is situated in a sprawling area of 21.5 acres. On the campus there are 07 institutions run by the Rural Education Society. Rural College is one

PREFACE
Higher Education is no longer the privilege of select groups, but a universally accepted natural and fundamental right of every student who seeks it. Poojya Sri S. Kariappa long back realized this fact and made up his mind to educate the rural folk who never had the chance to get higher education in the entire taluk. The education levels of the rural families were very low.
The Rural College was established in 1955 with very few students. Now it has grown to a total strength of nearly 1500 students. The college which is in the centre place of the town is affiliated to Bangalore University.
Now-a-days two divides in education – Rural vs Urban confront each other and we are witnessing it. This arises when we speak about quality. Trained and qualified teachers are not ready to come to rural areas as they may not get the financial benefits that they expect. Another reason is that the socio- economic condition of the students is very low and hence it is very difficult to bring them to a higher level. Keeping all these difficulties in mind, the Rural College provides enough infrastructural facilities, qualified teachers and ensures that the learners have reached the expected level of learning and skill acquisitions. Both at the curricular and extracurricular fronts, the institution has been enriching and empowering its beneficiaries through quality education. Students‟ achievements at different levels bear testimony to this fact.
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page10
Rural college Kanakapura
The institution strongly believes in self-assessment of its academic and other programs. Hence it had been for the first accreditation in 2004 and was accredited „B++‟ grade. In 2010 it went for the second cycle of accreditation and was accredited „B‟ grade. Since then, the institution has implemented quality initiative programs and now we are ready for the third cycle of accreditation.
The college knows that it has many miles to go in its journey towards pursuit of excellence. Attempts are being made continually in this direction. A bird‟s eye view is given here.
We assure you that we are committed to quality enhancement. Hence we most humbly submit ourselves before NAAC:
For an objective analysis of our achievements, our strength and our contribution to the stakeholders. For receiving guidelines from NAAC for further improvement of quality and sustenance measures.

CRITERION - VII
INNOVATION AND BEST PRACTICES
The institution is committed to all round development of students. It emphasizes the need for total qualities management. The IQAC monitors and supervises all the activities of the college. It helps in organizing curricular and extracurricular activities.
Student representatives are taken in various committees. The Cultural Committee organizes various functions. Talents of the students are brought to the surface through college magazine. State level debates are conducted every year in memory of the Founder President of Rural Education Society.

The Rural Education Society organizes National Festivals and Birth Day celebrations of great leaders to strengthen fellowship and to develop brotherhood amongst all those who are connected to the society.
Similarly various lecture programs are arranged for the enhancement of knowledge and understanding the subject well.
Free Midday meal has created a positive impact on the functioning of the college. Poor students can continue without hunger.
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page26
Rural college Kanakapura
Installation of 16 CCTV cameras in the previous year has boosted the self- confidence of the students. They feel comfortable and secure without the fear of theft and intruders.
NCC and NSS wings also conduct many extension activities and community oriented services. Hence we believe not only in giving good education but also inculcating good values.
The incentives given to the meritorious students have created competitive atmosphere. Sri Laxman, Bhavani Trust, Bangalore, who is also the Vice President of our society, awards a cash prize of Rs 5000 to each who scores highest marks in individual subject, and also has offered free mid–day meals to more than 300 students. It has a positive impact on student community.
More than 90% of the strength comes from rural areas. But the college takes this as a challenge and motivates them to participate and shed their complexes. The atmosphere of the institution is quite conducive for students to develop noble and healthy practices.

SWOC ANALYSIS
We strongly believe in the concept of self-audit. We are in pursuit of excellence. We honestly make SWOC analysis to our own advantage and further improvement.
STRENGTHS
The college was established in the year 1955 and has now completed 60 years. During these 60 years the college has earned good reputation in the district. State-of-the-art infrastructure, experienced mentors, creative atmosphere and innovative methods all have made the institution a learning centre for rural students. The location of the college at the centre of the town is a great strength. Without conveyance, a large number of students, particularly girls from different villages come to the college. The KSRTC bus stop is very near. The management and the institution are committed to give quality education to its stakeholders. Hence fee structure is affordable and the atmosphere is conducive. It has good relationship with stakeholders. The institution gives value-based education through experienced, committed faculty. The seniors pass the message on to the juniors and advise them to seek admission in the college.
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page28
Rural college Kanakapura
The college is getting ranks almost every year. Even in PG course the institution secured ranks and the result is 100%. Varied cultural activities, free mid-day meal and good ambience are the other strengths of the college. Vast campus area, a very big sports field are an added bonus to the institution.
WEAKNESSES
Students are constrained to leave the campus as soon as the classes are over, leaving little room for utilizing the facilities like computer literacy, sports and participating in other extra-curricular activities. Therefore hostel admissions for girls are yet to be done. Boy‟s hostel accommodation requires improvement. The institution had no research facility. The faculty needs to be encouraged to take up research projects. There is no academy for coaching the students of this area for competitive examination. This needs to be started.
OPPORTUNITIES
The institution has enough land for future development. Preparation of a long term „Master Plan‟ for the college for the infrastructure development can be made. In the academic front, some opportunities can be explored and exploited to the optimal level. Both the teachers and the management can think of utilizing the UGC grants available under various heads particularly to start Add-on or Certificate courses. The institution has ample opportunities for more social development activities. The college can be made a „Model Community College‟ by starting job-oriented and need-based courses at the college-level itself.
CHALLENGES
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page29
Rural college Kanakapura
The institution is facing some challenges or threats owing to the pressure of the society and the latest trends in the job market. There is general apathy to BA course. It is now a not-sought-after course. BSc is also on the decline due to technical courses. In addition to this, a number of government colleges are being opened in nearby villages even in remote areas. Hence the catchment area to admission becomes narrow and limited. The grant-in aid appointment both for teaching and non-teaching vacant posts or for new vacancies is not made. The government is neglecting the aided colleges. It may be difficult to run the college on self-finance basis. However, the institution responds to these challenges in a positive way so that our vision and mission can be accomplished. The institution with a new hope and vision started PG courses is Kannada, History and Commerce. But the admission is on the decline. The institution has to think of on these lines to make it a centre of quality and excellence.

Demand for B.Com degree is on the rise as it is more jobs oriented and utilitarian than traditional degree such as B.A, BSC and BCA.
Demand for BA is on the decline as there is general decreasing trend all over the state. Moreover government first grade colleges are opened in nearby places and remote area also where there is no tuition fee for girls. This is a main challenge to us. Fortunately the present state government in its latest budget has extended free education to all girl students in the aided colleges also.

The syllabus and question paper patterns are revised constantly (once is three years) to suit the current needs. For example earlier grading system was there. Now instead of 100 marks theory and grading syllabus, we have 70 marks for theory and 30 marks for internal assessment.

Rural college Kanakapura
Ramanavami
The college alone celebrates the following birthdays.
Ambedkar jayanthi Sardar Patel jayanthi
The founder President Sri. S. Kariappa was a true Gandhian. He followed the path of Gandhi. The aim of the institution is to provide value based education to the poor people of the society. It is through the celebrations the institution is striving hard to make them understand the values. Swamy Vivekananda Jayanthi helps develop “universal brotherhood” feeling among the young generation. Gandhian path helps develop „non-violence‟ practice and to remove casteism and also to indulge in community outreach programs.
The founder President of the Society Sri. S. Kariappa was born on Ramanavami and died on the same day. To imbibe the qualities of great leaders these two birthdays are celebrated.
Dr. Ambedkar Jayanthi and Sardar Patel‟s Jayanthi. Helpdevelop National Integration amongst the students.
The changing scenarios of the society due to modernization and globalization have adverse effects on the young generation through media. The challenges ahead are to develop good qualities of great heroes who fought for the integration of the nation. That is possible only through celebrating birthdays of these leaders by joining hands with all the other institutions which are run by the society.

We strength believe is the concept of self –audit. We are pursuit of excellence. We honestly make SWOC analysis to our own advantage and further improvement.
STRENGTH OF THE COLLEGE
The college was established is the year 1955 and has now completed 60 years. During there 60 years the college has earned good reputation is the district. State-of –the-art infrastructure, experienced mentors, creative atmosphere and innovative method all have made the institution a learning centre for rural folk.
Location of the college at the centre of the town is strength. Without conveyance, a large number of students, particularly girls from different villages come to the college. KSRTC Bus stop is very near.
The management and the institution are committed to give quality education to its stakeholders. Hence fee structure is affordable and the atmosphere is
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page190
Rural college Kanakapura
conductive. It has good relationship with stakeholders. The institution gives value based education through experienced, committed faculty.
The seniors pass the message on to the juniors and advise them to seek admission in the college. The college is getting ranks almost every year. Even is PG course the institution secured ranks and the result 100%.
Varied cultural activities, free mid-day meal and good ambience are the other strength of the college. Vast campus areaand a very big sports field are added bonus to the institution.
WEAKNESS OF THE COLLEGE
Students are constrained to leave the campus as soon as the classes are over, leaving little room for utilizing the facilities like computer literacy, sports and participating is other extra-curricular activities. Therefore hostel admission for girls to be made. Boy‟s hostel accommodation requires improvement. The institution had no research facility. The faculty needs to be encouraged to take up research projects. There is no academy for coaching the students of this area for competitive examination. This needs to be started.
OPPORTUNITIES
The institution has enough land for future development. Preparation of a long term „Master Plan‟ for the college for the infrastructure development can be made.
In the academic front, some opportunities can be explored and exploited to the optimal level. Both the teachers and the management can think of utilizing the
Third Cycle of Accreditation Page191
Rural college Kanakapura
UGC grants available under various heading, particularly to start add-on or certificate courses.
The institution has ample opportunities for more social development activities. The college can be made a „Model Community College‟ by starting job- oriented and need based courses at the college-level itself.
CHALLENGES
The institution is facing some challenges or a threat owing to the pressure of the society and the latest trends is the job market. There is general apathy to BA course. It is now not sought after course. BSc is also on the decline due to technical courses. In addition to this a number of government colleges are being opened is nearby villages even is remote areas. Hence the catchment area to admission becomes narrow and limited.
The grant-in aid appointment both for teaching and non-teaching vacant posts or for new vacancies is not made. The government is neglecting the aided colleges. It may be difficult to run the college on self-finances basis. However, the institution responds to these challenges is a positive way so that our vision and mission can be accomplished.
The institution with a new hope and vision started PG courses is Kannada, history and commerce. But the admission is on the decline. The institution has to think of on these lines to make it centre of quality and excellence.
