g) Alumni
-
Alumni Association with details: The Alumni Coordinator looks after the alumni-related activities of the College, working under the overall supervision of the IQAC. College has an Alumni Association, formed in 2007, and is registered. Its accounts for the last five years have been audited and are attached. College has met with good success in its effort to reach out to the alumnae, and we hold an Alumnae Day every year, where the alumnae visit their alma mater. There is a meet with just the faculty and alumnae, where the past students share their life experiences and college reminiscences, and the faculty inform them about the developments in the college as also the issues being faced. We also discuss the progress of NAAC Accreditation and its various cycles. Alumnae support the College with various ideas and experiences, and provide valuable and key feedback to the College. The feedback is analysed and placed before the IQAC regularly. Action taken is also reported, and communicated to alumnae as well as to the IQAC through the Alumni Committee. They also took part enthusiastically in the Golden Jubilee functions. It is a measure of satisfaction that a very large number of alumnae who have carved out prominent careers out of their lives have come forward with contributions, and most alumnae who attend the alumni meet always leave behind a small donation. As one alumna said, they would not want the Alumnae Meet to be a burden on the College, and in fact should be a contribution. The list of alumnae who have contributed significantly to nation-building is quite long and diverse, and is attached herewith. Alumnae support their alma mater not just with financial donation but with mentoring, providing advice, key inputs about interactions between students and faculty and within the student body. They also help by canvassing the cause of higher education amongst rural girls, and help us fulfil our objectives of furthering the empowerment of women by the route of higher education. Many alumnae have convinced their family members to enrol in our college, and this is the best contribution they can make. Some mothers have got enrolled because of their daughters who have studied here!
