Best Practices - No- 1 1. Title of the Practice - Promoting Girl-Students for Higher Education

2. Goal Even in the 21st century, the rural girl-students’ parents do not prefer to send their daughters to colleges for higher education. Most of the parents think that education up to H. S. C. sufficient for their daughters. The students, especially, girl-students come to our college are also from rural areas. But our institution has already decided to promote girl-students for higher education. Not only the Admission Committee, but all the teaching and non teaching staff personally make contact with the parents of girl-students. After re-opening of the college, in months of June and July, all the faculties visit each and every village from which girl-students come to take admission in our college. First of all, we assure the parents about safety and security of their daughters. The girl-students’ ratio in our institution is almost 1:1. In future, our institution is planning to increase the ratio up to 1:2.

3. The Context There are two lady teachers namely Smt. M. N. Chaudhari and Dr. Smt. V. R. Hajare they are instructed to solve the problem of any girl-student immediately, by taking help of Principal N. T. Thorat, if necessary. For the purpose, Sexual Harassment and Anti-ragging Committees are formed. Our institution also helps to solve the problem of S. T. Buses by making contact with the authorities of State Transport Department. Our institution has provided the infrastructural facilities for girl’s common room. There is also Yuvati Sabha, through which the girl-students get guidance on the topics like personality development, personal hygienic, and right to pee.

4. The Practice For the effective implementation of promoting girl- students to higher education, the institution has done the following things.

Smt. N. N. C. Arts, Commerce and Science College, Kusumba Page 78 Self-Study Report

1. Our all faculties, including non-teaching staff make contacts with the parents of girl-students and make them assure about the safety and security of their daughters.

2. Our institution makes contact with the officials of State Transport Department for the buses in order to make students easily up and down from their own villages to college and vice-versa.

3. The resource persons like doctors, teachers, social workers and advocates are frequently invited to deliver the lectures on empowering the girl- students.

4. The girl-students are motivated and encouraged to take part in the institutional activities like Sports, NSS, Youth Festival, Annual Social Gathering and attending various camps and competitions organized at different institutions.

5. Special women centered programmes like “Save Girl Child”, ”Literature on Women”, “Rangoli and Mehandi competition” are organized.

6. Evidence of Success 1. The admission ratio of the girl-students is almost 1:1 as compare to male students, and the girl-students also become fearless due to the backing of the college staff. Resultantly, they started to take part in each and every function of the college. 2. The girl-students are taking part in the institutional activities like Youth Festival, Annual Social Gathering and attending various camps and competitions organized at different institutions.

3. In the Sports and NSS activities the female students have achieved considerable success.

4. The drop out of the girl-students in the institution has decreased as compared to the male students.

5. The girl-students have gained confidence due the activities organized by the institution for them, now they are prepared for self defense.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required There is no expert human resource management available for conducting the women centered programmes in the institution. There is also shortage of female employees in the institution. The ratio of female employees in teaching faculty is 107:1 and non-teaching is 214:1. There is the need to increase the number of female employees in the institution.

7. Notes (Optional) For the effective implementation of the best practices needs the management/administrative support and time management. On this basis we are partially successful.

Best Practice No. 2 1. Title of the Practice

Promoting Faculties for Research.

2. Goal University Grants Commission is the supreme body of higher education. It always encourages and is always ready to give incentives to the teachers who want to do research. Even the incentives in the form of increments given to the serving teachers after the completion of their research. Thus, our institution has decided to promote the teaching faculty for the research. In our institution, a special Research Committee is formed to look after and motivate the teaching faculty for doing research. In our institution minimum one Ph. D in each department. The goal is to make compulsory to all the faculties to do research in their respective subjects. It ensures continuous professional growth on the part of teachers and of problem identifying systematic planning and careful implementation. The Research Committee of the college takes initiatives for all activities related to research.

3. The Context The 21st century, is the century of advanced Science and Technology. Whatever is invented or discovered yesterday becomes stale or obsolete tomorrow. In such era, it becomes the prime duty of every faculty, to get updated with the time. If any teacher lazily winks at that fast changing and fast improving cycle of knowledge, it will definitely be crime on the part of him or her. Though the students come to our college are from rural areas, it is their right to get highly qualified teachers and updated knowledge. It is

Smt. N. N. C. Arts, Commerce and Science College, Kusumba Page 80 Self-Study Report

also the duty of each faculty to involve students in his or her research or to encourage them to do research on whatever syllabus is prescribed to them.

4. Practice For the effective implementation of promoting al faculties for research, the institution has formed the research Committee to do the following things. 1. The institution has already provided all the facilities to the faculties who are doing research. If necessary, the leaves are also granted to them who want to go to collect data or books from various universities. 2. The faculties who have completed M. Phil courses, they are encouraged and motivated for doing Ph. D in their respective subjects. 3. The Ph. D holder teachers are asked for publishing their doctoral theses in the form of books. 4. The research committee also motivates all the faculties for applying for the major and minor projects by providing guidelines and the details of funding agencies. 5. The faculties are always asked for attending Refresher, Orientation and Short Term Courses.

5 Evidence of Success

The achievement in the fields of research are the main indicators of excellence in research practiced at the college. 1. Six staff members have successfully completed their doctoral degrees in different universities 2. Five faculties also acquires their M. Phil degrees. 3. Five staff members are engaged in their doctoral degrees. 4. Almost all staff members participate in various seminars, conferences and present papers in them. 5. Two faculties are doing minor research projects granted by North Maharashtra University, Jalgaon. 6. Two teachers are University approved supervisors and guiding M. Phil and Ph. D scholars. 7. Four faculties have already published their doctoral theses in the form of books. 8. Two staff members have written or edited books on the syllabus prescribed by our university.

6 Problems Encountered and Resources Required Our college is recently recognized as the college of 2(f), we still to have get recognition of 12(b). Due to this, we could not get any grants or funds from either UGC or RUSA or NMU, Jalgaon. Resultantly, the faculties could not get major or minor research projects from these funding agencies. We also failed in organizing national or state level seminars and conferences in our

Smt. N. N. C. Arts, Commerce and Science College, Kusumba Page 81 Self-Study Report

college. Except the above mentioned funding agencies, there are no other sources of getting funds.
