3 COLLEGE LOGO 3 Main Elements The spirit and the Scripture Christian inspiration for all that we do. Don Bosco Our educational philosophy. Maram House- Rooted in the culture of the people. Learn Excel Lead Enabling the youth to be effective leaders. Part A The Plan of action chalked out by the IQAC in the beginning of the year towards quality enhancement and the outcome achieved by the end of the year. A. On the basis of the assessment report and the experience gained over the years in attempting to implement its suggestions the year -12 began with the following orientation as to guide the life of the institution: 1. It was felt that utmost priority had to be given towards enhancing the quality of the teaching faculty in line with the NACC recommendations as to ensure their self-fulfilment as well as commitment on which alone the future of the institution could be built. To achieve this goal it was suggested that besides the facilities already provided it was decided to pursue with government to obtain Grand-in-Aid which will enable the institution to provide the staff with enhanced salary which would invite better qualified and experienced teaching staff. 2. It was observed that the efforts at innovating the teaching learning received impetus from the setting up of the Language lab as it elicited increased involvement of the students. However, the need was felt for stress on the co-curricular activities and in providing an attractive campus with meaningful and monitored group activities. To achieve this goal it was suggested that a Campus Ministry Coordinator be appointed specifically to look into student welfare and their co-curricular activities. An office space for the coordinator too was envisaged on the floor where lecture halls are located by shifting the present equipment room. 3. It was envisaged that while they pursue regular degree course the Career Oriented Programmes benefit students in planning their respective future careers the social commitment of the institution to the locality in providing access to the disadvantaged could truly be catered to only through the distance mode of education being made available through the IGNOU study centre. To achieve this goal of meaningful participation in the life of the locality it was decided to set up an IGNOU Coordinators. 4. After obtaining Grand-in-Aid we shall further seek 2B Status from the UGC and seek all assistance from it for development of the college. 5. Prevent drop outs through special scholarship for weak students. A number of students are from remote rural background some of them real sacrifice to reach here to pursue their studies. In the process of their stay here they find difficult to maintain themselves financially. Such students will be helped out either through scholarship or loan from the college. Thus this students are able to continue their studies undisturbed and prevent drop out

4 B. An assessment of the year -12 reveals that: 4 1. Though we have had a number of able teachers coming to us and eager to serve the institution, either their own future prospects for further study or family related compulsions have drawn them away not least being also the monetary considerations. Therefore, it has been proposed taking the advantage that Don Bosco College, Maram has been widely acclaimed as the best College in the state and in university, that the institution should pursue strongly to avail financial assistance from the government to towards salary. 2. The student interest and enthusiasm in teaching learning has been sustained to a great extent and the personal follow up by the mentors of students, Coordinators of various groups and clubs could provide spirited life in the campus appreciably observed by the students and visiting dignitaries. The student council and the clubs were better animated through the active role played by the staff in animating the co-curricular activities of the students through their groups and clubs. 3. The college is situated in a state where there are constant occurrences of inter-tribal feuds and rivalry. In this context the College is been declared as a Peace Zone and takes initiatives to promote peace and mutual understanding among the students of various tribes. Often the students experience violence and conflict in their village set ups. However, the college provides a campus where they live in harmony and mutual understanding; whereby the students in the campus learn to live in peace and harmony with each other. Part B 1. Activities reflecting the goals and objectives of the institution: o The Governing Body meetings (twice a year) IQAC meetings (twice a year) College Staff meetings (once a month) and regular local council and religious staff meetings are the mainstay by which the College seeks to fulfil its goals and objectives as specified in the college calendar and annual plan. o A Campus Coordinators for various groups and movements are appointed: women s cell coordinator Mrs. Chingamphy Vashum, BIIT Fr.

18 Part C 18 Details of the Institutional plan for the year Our experience of offering quality higher education in the only primitive tribe of the state according to the government of India, which is also placed in a rural, hilly, tribal district which is also educationally and economically has been acclaimed widely as serving the most needy section of the society and the state. It is encouraging to see that the number of students seeking admission from all over the state of Manipur as well as from the neighbouring of the North East. This year 46 students of our college topped in the Graduate examinations held by the Manipur University. On the other hand, our concerns for the future are about sustaining quality by seeking ways to ensure its continuity and incremental growth. In order to achieve this goal for the coming year we envisage the following: 1. In order to improve the quality of the students and to engage them fully in the teaching-learning process every department is asked to organize a seminar in every semester. 2. To improve the quality of the teaching staff and to engage them in academic pursuits the lectures are asked to articulate their ideas and opinions through scholarly articles and researches. 3.In order offer a chance to as many students as possible from economically backwards areas, the college decided to improve its infrastructure in the coming year. 4. The credibility of institutions of higher education being gauged from its research output, though being an undergraduate institution, the college shall encourage students to conduct survey of the neighbouring villages of the socio-economic situations. 5. The commitment to the average student and turning him or her into the best one can be has been the mainstay of this small but significant institution of higher learning down its past 70 plus years of history. In keeping with this tradition we shall encourage through the Remedial Coaching Centre the monitoring and capability of enhancement of the weaker students among the SC/ST and minority communities. 6. The IQAC team has been revamped as to include new entrants even as we are moving towards the re-accreditation phase and efforts are to be put in place to achieve the target of implementing the suggestions given by the NAAC report 2009.
