For the first time in our professional lives as teachers in the Delhi University system, we have undertaken a task which has revealed to us the definition and contours of the workplace, the nature of our work in a Higher Education Institution, the role and engagement of the various segments of the community it fosters and their links with the larger world. Nurturing young minds is an end in itself, but to track that growth or indeed sometimes the lack of it, to position and reposition oneself to accommodate its various shades and its twists and turns, is a movement that is rarely experienced in the way it has been in the preparation of this report. In that sense, the Self-Study Report has been a coming together of the philosophy of the institution, the tradition of learning it has generated, the work practices that have evolved and their manifestation in multiple ways over almost a century. It has been a rich learning experience, providing the directions for course-correction and challenging us with the prospect of a mechanism of internal quality assurance. Though the College has these mechanisms available through its departmental committees spread over its different units, the processes delineated by the NAAC and its enabling vocabulary will surely serve as a useful grammar to organize, document, structure, quantify define and evaluate all that we do, in a way that also becomes an exercise in the accountability so crucial to a public-funded institution. The preparation of this report has been participative, involving the formation of committees undertaking diverse tasks for the purpose, in every department and unit of the College. All these committees have provided inputs to the Steering Committee which organized the information and discussion around the various criteria. We thank each and every colleague involved in the massive exercise of data collection, deliberation and reflection. Over the past three months, the Steering Committee of Dr. Meena Bhargava and Dr. Vinita Sinha, led by its meticulous, diligent and brilliant Co-ordinator, Dr. Vagisha Sharma, has brought the different strands of the narrative of Indraprastha College for Women together in this report. The entire College joins me in thanking the team for executing this onerous task with the utmost transparency and honesty.
