EXECUTIVE SUMMARY – A SWOC ANALYSIS

ABOUT THE COLLEGE:-

Purnea college, Purnia, established in 1948, is the oldest institution of higher education in this region. Situated on the periphery, adjoining West Bengal in the east and Nepal in the north, the institution is a commemoration of the efforts of the freedom fighters of this area. Late Dr. Lakshmi Narayan Sudhanshu, Ram Narayan Mandal (Both former speakers of Bihar legislative Assembly) Bhola Paswan Shastri (Ex Chief Minister of Bihar and Central Minister), noted freedom fighter and Sarvodya leader Late Baidyanath Choudhary, Late Rai Bahadur Durga, Prasanna Ghosh, Raghuwansh Prasad Singh, Upendra Narayan Choudhary, Anup Lal Mehta, Haji Ziaur Rahman, Seth Raut Mal, Kumar Bimlanand Sinha of Banaili Estate and the then District Magistrate Shiv Prasad Singh, were the inspiring force behind the establishment of this college.

The urgency and necessity of establishing a college here compelled Sudhanshujee to move fast and it conceived first of all at Gokul Krishna Ashram in 1944 but the effect of Quit India Movement still running at a pace found the pioneers of this mission behind the premises of different prisons. Just after the independence these stalwarts of the area found their dream come true. The state capital being 300 kms away without road connectivity, the nearest college being 100 kms away at Bhagalpur across the river Ganga, only a few could manage to have their wards sent to far away places for higher learning. Varanasi, , Kolkata, even Bhagalpur and Muzaffarpur were out of bound for common people of this area which is predominantly connected with agriculture even today.

The college has three main streams – Arts, Science and Commerce up to the Post Graduate level. The B.C.A. Hons course was sponsored by UGC in 1997 and later on B.C.A. (Semester course), B.B.A Programme were launched under self Financing scheme. The college provides accommodation and infrastructural support to IGNOU and NOU study centres; the community college has added a new chapter in the ongoing journey of the college.

The institution is indebted to both U.G.C. and the State Government for their support. The newly built massive examination hall and a new hostel by the state Government has lessened the load to a great extent in matters of conducting examinations in a secure way and lodging facilities of students in a fair manner. The college has two premises, the main building is situated in the middle of 47.24 acres and the others part is the massive open ground of known as Rangbhumi Maidan comprising the Indira Gandhi Stadium built by the central government. There is enough scope of developing a sports complex in the Rangbhoomi Maidan. The institution has a glorious past and bright future. Late Janardan Prasad Jha “Dwiz”, the noted poet of national fame was the first permanent Principal of the college, Dr. Madneshwar Mishra, the Principal, was appointed the first vice-chancellor of Lalit Narayan Mithila University in 1972. We very aptly remember our past students, Abhas Kumar Chatterjee (I.A.S Topper. 1966) noted litterateurs Madhukar Gangadhar, Subal Ganguly, Kamla Parasd Bekhabar, Ravindra Nath Thakur and several others on positions of authority and Social life. The college has recently been declared as a centre of excellence by the State Government but it only gives us impetus, the faculty members are aware of their responsibilities. Devoted and academic friendly teachers nourished this institution right from its inception and the process continues, our motto may well be reflected in the lines of Robert Frost-

“ The Woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I Sleep,, And miles to go before I Sleep

✓ Best Practices

SELF STUDY REPORT, PURNEA COLLEGE, PURNIA P a g e | 97

CRITERIA VII: INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES

7.1 Environment Consciousness Purnea College, Purnia has a sprawling campus split in two parts. Part one comprises the main administrative and academic building, including hostels and the other part is a sports complex. The latter has a stadium in the name of our former Prime-Minister Mrs. Indira Gandhi and outside a big Rang Bhumi Maidan that caters to the needs of the society in various ways. The main campus is of forty eight acres and every possible effort has been made to secure a natural environment. In the north side of the campus there is a heavy tree plantation, in the western side the pond is being developed with the aid from the state government. The old orchard of the college is being covered with new plants since the age old plants re decaying but the continuity is paramount.

7.1.1 Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities?

Yes. The institute conducts a Green Audit of its campus and facilities by the Campus Development Committee of the college. it has an attractive green coverage. The college Campus Development Committee takes every care for conservation of the plants and promotion of pollution free environment in the campus. The committee keeps the record of plants and trees of the campus and verifies the electric appliances and supply of safe drinking water. The committee encourages N.S.S,Units of the college for implanting saplings during rainy season and to take their care. The College Development Committee tries its level best for consumption of minimum electric energy and to prevent loss of water. 7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?

Energy Conservation: The college class rooms are naturally well lighted and ventilated and rarely require electric light. The departments take care to see that no electrical equipment or gas runs unnecessarily. The College instils a spirit of energy saving in all stakeholders, particularly among the students. CFL / LED bulbs are used in different departments.

Effort for carbon neutrality: The College in its own capacity has taken measures to check the emission of carbon dioxide. The use of coal as fuel in the canteen has been banned and replaced by gas. We are now aware of carbon-credits and are replacing all incandescent bulbs with tube lights and CFLs. Air conditioners and other cooling machines are installed and are used as and when absolutely necessary (e.g., maintenance of computers, preservation of degradable animal/a biogenic samples).

Plantation: Plantation is a regular feature of this institution as the NSS unit of the college plant, water and manages the proper growth of plants. Several trees have been planted by the NSS unit observes ‘Van Mahotsav’ as a tradition every year.

Hazardous and e-waste management: Waste chemicals in the Chemistry laboratories are properly disposed by dissolving them in water or by keeping them separately in protected sheets. The laboratories are fitted with fume cupboards and exhaust fans to control spread of gas fumes. In a further step

SELF STUDY REPORT, PURNEA COLLEGE, PURNIA P a g e | 98

towards this direction, the current chemistry practical syllabus has reduced the use of toxic chemicals and solvents. All e-waste is handed over to the companies engaged in recycling of e-waste. Old computers are auctioned after receiving permission from University.

Other Activities: • The College organizes seminars and lectures on contemporary environmental issues. • The NSS holds debates, talks and quiz on different issues regarding environment. • Students have participated in poster presentation on water harvesting. • Students actively participate in public health programmes like control of AIDS, polio awareness programme.

7.2 Innovations

7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the college.

• College Website: All relevant information is available on the college website. It has helped the students especially during admission. • Computerization of the administrative work: This has helped to optimize the use of man power. All relevant documents can be preserved and tracked readily. • Feedback system: Feedback on the college, departments and the performance of teachers is taken from regular third year outgoing honours students. Analysis of data is used for improvement as well as encouragement. This helps to understand both the strengths and the weaknesses of the faculty. • ICT enabled teaching and learning: A student-friendly curriculum delivery is ensured through the adoption of modern trends in teaching-learning process using computers and audio-visual aids parallel to the classical system of lecturing using chalk and board method. For this, the departments are provided with desktop and laptop computers with internet facilities. Some departments use specific software as required by the curriculum. • Inter-departmental exchange of faculties: This practice improves quality of teaching and allows optimum utilization of in-house expertise, particularly addressing the interdisciplinary topics introduced in the revised syllabus. • Installation of audio system: All the larger class rooms are equipped with audio facilities for the benefit of teacher and student alike. • Renovation of infrastructure and computerization of library and other improvements: The library has been renovated and reorganized for maximum utilization of space. Computerization of library is under process to ensure computerized transactions and access to E-journals etc. • Academic innovations: The College is aware of the emerging areas of study. Due to the constraint of space and time, it is very difficult to incorporate these new subjects as full-time courses. Hence such topics are presented to students in the form of short Modules/seminars/workshops. Number of students attending such programmes is highly satisfactory.

We have introduced soft skill development programmes and workshops on entrepreneurship management for outgoing students to get them acquainted with the job market. Some departments of the college organise student seminars to develop the skill of public speaking and to encourage research abilities. Students also participate in events like mock parliament.

SELF STUDY REPORT, PURNEA COLLEGE, PURNIA P a g e | 99

• The College has organized compulsory computer literacy programme within college hours for the 1st year students to impart knowledge of basic computer skills. • We have career counselling programmes and interested students are sent for summer projects.

7.3 Best Practices

7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no. 98, which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional Objectives and/or contributed to the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college.

Best Practice-1: Empowerment of Women through Quality Education.

❖ Goals

The college engages in women’s empowerment through education practices with the following objectives:

• To enable students to appreciate and understand the essential role played by women in society and the work force. • To assess the needs of economically challenged students and first generation learners and help them to achieve their academic goals. • To understand and address through counseling both academic and psychological problems faced by the students. • To create a friendly and conducive learning environment for the students. • To provide moral support to students from repressed and emotionally unstable environments. • To motivate students to perform better through prizes and scholarships.

❖ The context

We believe that education is the most important tool for women’s empowerment. Educating a woman is equivalent to educating a family, and consequently the entire nation. Women have a significant contribution in the present workforce. Even as homemakers, they play an essential role in educating their children and giving them a firm moral foundation. The college acknowledges the greater responsibility associated with women’s education and makes utmost effort not only to create an environment conducive to learning for all the students, but also to equip them with moral values and skills which will support and sustain them throughout life. As women from economically weaker sections of the society confront greater difficulties in pursuing higher education, various supports is extended to them to realize their potential and fulfil their dream of establishing themselves as valuable members of society through quality education.

❖ The Practice

The college takes the following steps towards the empowerment of women:

• Our college extends financial support to meritorious but economically disadvantaged

SELF STUDY REPORT, PURNEA COLLEGE, PURNIA P a g e | 100

students in the form of tuition fee concessions (full/partial). Although free studentships are mostly granted on merit-cum-means basis, the conditions are relaxed for students who do not fulfill the criteria of merit but will be unable to continue their education without financial aid.

• Students of the college incapable of paying University examination or excursion fees but not fulfilling the criteria for free studentship are supported by funds raised from contributions from teachers. The admission fees for meritorious but economically disadvantaged students are often paid from these funds. After admission, such students are immediately recommended for free studentship.

• The Students’ Welfare Cell provides support and counselling on academic and psychological matters. The students are sometimes directed to organizations providing formal therapeutic help in such cases. They are encouraged to complete their education and become self-reliant.

• Besides this, the students regularly seek personal advice on academic and psychological matters from the teachers of their departments. The teachers frequently remain after college hours to provide such counselling. Such intra-departmental counselling has proved to be extremely effective in improving the academic performance as well as the emotional stability of the students. • The college also has a relaxed attendance policy for students who need to work to support their families. The teachers also lend their maximum support to such students. • The college has a healthy mix of students from all communities and backgrounds that learn to coexist and work together in harmony. This promotes a sense of national integrity.

Best Practice 2: PLANTATION IN THE CAMPUS

Goal:

1) To develop the habit of plantation among the students, staff and people of locality. 2) Soil conservation. 3) To create a carbon free environment and to promote greenery. 4) To provide natural oxygen to the environment to develop the cooling effect of the environment.

The context

Such noble attempts of the college inspires all and injects a passion in all to plant trees for a healthy & peaceful living by saving trees & saving the world in the context of Global warming.

Evidence of Success

The College environment itself is the evidence of success of plantation. We have planted 25,000 saplings during last 4 years in the college campus. And we have planned to plant more trees in the coming years. the college campus nicely focuses on our plantation activities.we have planted more than 4,000 suplings in joint collaboration with the local people and Dist. Forest Department,Purnia. mMore than 1 Thousand saplings has been implanted with the help of our college students. In the college campus staff & students have planted more than 5,000 saplings in different times.

SELF STUDY REPORT, PURNEA COLLEGE, PURNIA P a g e | 101

Problems encountered & Resources required.

Many problems are encountered in this regard.

1) There is dearth of finance for procurement of saplings. 2) Watering of the plants during summer days. 3) Manuring of the plants. 4) Giving protection to the plants from herbivorous animals & tree–cutters. 5) We are helpless to save our loving plants from the natural calamities, as our area is prone to cyclone. 6) Financial aid for the purpose is highly required.
