It reads “To make quality the defining element of higher education in India through a combination of self and external quality evaluation, promotion and sustenance initiatives”. In pursuance to this, the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) of Sikkim Government College, Gyalshing, decided to initiate an internal Academic and Administrative Audit (AAA) for the Academic year 2018-2020 (2 Years). Reflection, self-assessment and introspective understanding constitute few of the key elements in understanding the Academic and Administrative status of an institution. Further, AAA also ensures compilation and proper documentation of all necessary data that any higher educational institution must mandatorily maintain. To undertake any activity which will have a positive bearing on an institution’s academic and administrative health, it takes so much more than a few bunches of people working tirelessly to concretize an idea into a tangible reality. The cooperation and support rendered by the administration and the faculty members must be acknowledge up front. However, AAA should not be taken as a one-time stint, rather such activity should be made a regular practice so as to assess the academic and administrative culture of an institution on a regular basis. The IQAC hopes that such activities may be made a compulsory exercise and we do expect timely cooperation from all stakeholders of Sikkim Government College, Gyalshing. Lastly, I would like to place on record the invaluable contribution rendered by each and every person which went into the making of this report. Rajiv Jairu Director (IQAC) SGC, Gyalshing 1 E d I t o r I a l Academic and Administrative Audit is one of the vital exercises prescribed by the National Assessment & Accreditation Council. HEIs need to mandatorily conduct an internal audit to assess the institution’s academic culture and administrative status. The Internal Quality Assurance Cell of Sikkim Government College, Gyalshing, therefore, resolved to undertake the AAA for the period 2018-2020 as part of its quality initiative. Success of any activity of such magnitude requires numerous hands and brains. Mr. Rajiv Jairu, Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics once hinted at his intention to carry out an internal audit and expressed his desire to rope me in the project as one of the members of the editorial team. I consented, albeit in a lighter vein. Never did I realize that I was going to be a part of an activity which will have a very positive ramification on the institutional wellbeing in a longer run. Ms. Namgyal Doma Bhutia, Assistant Professor, Department of English & Ms. Karma Choden Bhutia, Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, I am sure, have had a similar sort of feeling being involved in the editing process of this great project. The editorial team cannot thank enough the contribution of all the faculty members & administrative staff without whose thoughtful engagement and cooperation this project could not have been materialized. Thank you & happy reading!
