A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
“An educational system is worth a great deal if it teaches young
people how to acquire values of life. It is not just facilitate how to earn a living.”
The above statement emphasies the ultimate objective of education.
Education is to build life with character, values, which ultimately moulds
youngsters as good citizens.
“Asatoma Sadgamaya
Tamasoma Jyothirgamaya
Mruthyorma Amruthangamaya”
“From falsehood to truth, from darkness to light, from death to immorality”
– Rigveda.
The college was established during June 1978. The establishment of
this institution in the backward area has become a boon to the students. Infact
it has brought the otherwise those students who couldn’t pursue higher
education moving to relatively far of places like Bangalore and Kolar, to join
degree education. This had helped the economically poorer sections of this area
to encourage the wards to go for higher education.
The college was assessed by NAAC Peer Team in August, 2004 and
accredited with B+ grade. Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) was
constituted in the college as per the guidelines of NAAC in 2004.

OUR MANAGEMENT
THE NATIONAL EDUCATION SOCIETY OF KARNATAKA (R)
The National Movement of India inspired many enterprising persons to
establish National Schools and Colleges. Inspired by Gandhian ideals and
responding to the National Movement, the National School was established
in Bangalore in the year1917 by Annie Besant. It was first started on the
premises of the Doddanna Setty S.L.N. School. The school also faced the
prospect of closure due to differences of opinion among the founders.
However, some of the enlightened members of the Society of Bangalore
came forward to shoulder the responsibility of running the institution.
Prominent among them were persons like Sri. B.K.Garudachar, Sri
M.Ramachandra Scindhia and Sri M.K. Narasimhaiah. These business
magnates and philanthropists founded the National Education Society of
Mysore in 1918, which was later christened The National Education Society
of Karnataka in 1973 when the State of Mysore was renamed as Karnataka.
The first President of The National Education Society was Sri.Krishna
Iyengar. He was succeeded by Sri. B.K.Garudachar, who served as the
President of NES for 12 years. During his tenure the National High School
continued to function in a rented building in Tharagupet. It was a time when
Mahatma Gandhi played an important role in the struggle for independence.
The National Education Society of Karnataka responded whole-heartedly by
popularizing Gandhi an principle such as village development and social
service. The NES adopted the motto “Shraddha hi Paramagathihi” and the
emblem ‘Vedagni’ placed in an ornamental urn.
The objectives on which The National Education Society was established
were:
1. To establish, within the State of Karnataka, Schools, colleges and hostels.
2. To introduce any possible improvements in the system of education in its
Institutions from time to time.
3. To mobilize whenever necessary, public opinion in matters of educational
Importance.
To undertake and carry out any step to promote the above objective.

About our Ex-President - Dr. H. Narasimhaiah:
Dr. H. Narasimhaiah [1920-2005] was the president of the
National Education Society of Karnataka since 1975, which was
founded in 1917. Since its inception the society is being inspired
by the principles of Mahatma Gandhi.
Dr. H. Narasimhaiah joined the National College, Basavanagudi, in 1946.
He was a professor of physics in the college. He obtained his doctorate in
Nuclear physics from the Ohio state University, U.S.A.
Election of Dr. H. Narasimhaiah as the principal for four terms of three
years each lays bare the democratic governance practiced in the National
Education Society of Karnataka. Under his tutelage the institutions flourished
acquiring name and fame from the educational fraternity.
It was during the tenure of Dr .H. Narasimhaiah as the principal of the
college that innovative schemes such as ‘Examinations without invigilators’ and
‘classes on moral Health’ were launched. It was Dr. H. Narasimhaiah’s idea of
starting a service-oriented programme called ‘Seva Sangha’ in the college
which later on got merged with the N.S.S programme. Four annual intensive
social service camps for duration of one month were conducted in rural areas
under the leadership of Dr. H. Narasimhaiah. It was during his stewardship as
the principal of the college that it distinguished itself as an institution not only
on sound academic excellence but in co-curricular activities as well. Not only
did Dr. H.Narasimhaiah feel a continued concern and empathy for the poor and
the downtrodden in the society, but also inculcated the same humane values for
fellow beings among his students and teachers by organizing outreach programs
in the college.
Dr. H. Narasimhaiah started the Bangalore Science Forum in 1962 in the
National College, Basavanagudi, with the noble intention of popularizing
science and scientific temper, especially at a time when superstitions reigned
supreme. Persons of eminence in their respective fields have delivered One
thousand Nine Hundred lectures, and Five Hundred and Fifty films have been
screened under the auspices of the Bangalore Science Forum.

Dr.H.Narasimhaiah, a principal of an aided private degree college becoming for
the first time Vice Chancellor of the prestigious Bangalore University.
In recognition of the yeomen services rendered for popularizing science,
the prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru Award was bestowed on the Bangalore
Science Forum in 2003. This amply demonstrates Dr. H. Narasimhaiah’s
leadership in taking science to the common man and creating a spirit of
scientific inquiry. He opined that nothing should be accepted without
verification of facts. He encouraged students to raise questions.
Soon laurels started following Dr. H. Narasimhaiah. Government of India

services in the field of education. In addition, he is the recipient of several
distinguished awards such as ‘Thamrapatra’, ‘Rajyothsava Prashasti’, Honorary

growth of institutions which were dear to his heart. It is not an exaggeration
therefore to state that he is an example to emulate.

and their parents are briefed about the general practices of the institution in a
formal induction programme which serves as “COMMUNITY ORIENTATION”.
1.1.2 How does the institution develop and deploy action plans for effective
implementation of the curriculum? Give details of the process and substantiate
through specific example(s).
Affiliation to the Bangalore University restricts us to adopt the syllabus
prescribed by the university with little scope for developing the syllabus.. The
freedom of choosing the optional subjects is vested with students only,
according to their interests, strengths and weaknesses. To lay emphasis on
relevance to the regional/national and global trends and developmental needs
various courses are offered under different departments as under:
(i) Sociology Department:
(a) Industrial Sociology
(b) Anthropology.
(ii) Commerce Department: (a) Company law & Secretarial Practice;
(b) Basic Mathematics – for Ist year students:
© Accounting group and auditing group for III
Year B.Com
.
Thus all the above academic programs are in accordance with the
relevant needs of the society and industry. The syllabi are revised once in five
years. However, in some special fields like Income Tax and Computer
Fundamentals, the syllabi is revised regularly every year depending upon the
changes and developments occurring in the concerned fields. The special
papers like Computer Fundamentals, Indian Constitution and Environmental
Studies are included in different semesters to acquaint students graduating
out of the university with all the above subjects. The special papers are taught as
interdisciplinary subjects. The interdisciplinary subjects are choosen out of a
number of subjects listed by the Bangalore University. These subjects are taught
for different semesters in the case of BA/B.Sc/B.Com
As the institution is an affiliated college the curriculum is developed by
the affiliating university.
All the faculty members are required to prepare 1.
Semester teaching plan.
2. Monthly teaching plan.
3. Day wise & Unit wise teaching schedule.
4. Teaching diaries and teaching notes are maintained.
The in charge of the respective departments ensures the implementation of the

techniques, practices to be adopted to impart and translate the curriculum to
the students.
 Simultaneously the college is also conducting departmental meetings to
support the teachers in improving teaching practices.
 The faculty members attend the departmental conferences,
seminars and workshops conducted by the university.

members regularly attend workshops and seminars on revision of curriculum. The
college can only forward the suggestions of its faculty to the University through the
members of Board of Studies. The design and development of the curriculum is in
the hands of the university only.
1.4.2

each semester. This is obtained in a regular format specially designed for the
purpose.
b) Alumni:- Feedback from Alumni is obtained by interacting with them when they
visit the institution on various occasions like College Day, Founders Day,
Teachers Day, College Festivals etc.
c) Parents:- Suitably designed forms consisting of assessment of preparatory
examination along with the report of the wards are sent to the parents to obtain
their feedback. The parent-teacher meetings conducted by the College present an
opportunity to interact with them and get their feedback.

and interactive sessions. The college utilizes this opportunity to get their
feedback. Further, the college keeps direct contact with the officials of the
industry, who in turn provide a good feedback.
e) Academic Peers:- Interaction with academic peers at conferences, special lectures
and college annual functions, panel discussions, etc., is yet another avenue of
getting feedback.
f) Community:- Feedback is also sought during interaction with the distinguished
members of the managing committee, discussions with scholars from the various
Board Meetings of the University and general meetings with society members
The feedback thus obtained from various sources is analysed and deliberated by
the Principal, Vice-Principal and Management Representatives. The outcome of

CRITERION II: TEACHING-LEARNING AND EVALUATION
2.1
Student Enrolment and Profile
2.1.1
How does the college ensure publicity and transparency in the admission
process?
The pattern the institution follows to ensure wide publicity for the admission
process is as follows :
_ Issuing Prospectus
_ Advertisement in newspapers and local television network
_ Erection of banners in front of the college and other prominent places _
- Distribution of pamphlets
The institution has maintained high transparency in the admission process by
publishing intake capacity and admission schedule of each and every programme. It is
notified on blackboards, the student noticeboards and the college prospectus. Fortunately
all the students who seek admission for B.A & B.Sc., at the institution are given
admissions. But, for B.Com. course, since there is a very high demand, merit cum
reservation policy of the government is followed. The college receives more than 500
applications for B.Com course; whereas intake capacity is 260 only. The
meritorious students irrespective of caste, creed and financial status are admitted to all
faculties.
2.1.2 Explain in detail the criteria adopted and process of admission (Ex. (i) merit
(ii) common admission test conducted by state agencies and national agencies
(iii) combination of merit and entrance test or merit, entrance test and
interview (iv) any other) to various programmes of the Institution.
General:
The students are selected on the basis of merit cum reservation system at the
qualifying examination as prescribed by the University. We follow the government
reservation policy for admissions.
Courses:
The cut-off percentage as per the requirements of University is 35 per cent for
B.A, B.Sc., B.Com courses. For all the above courses, students are selected based on
their academic performance. Keeping in mind social responsibility, we give
preference at the time of admission to girl students, Sports persons and physically
challenged.
It is our practice that re-admission to the following year is not automatic. This
is with a view to inculcate good qualities such as responsibility, discipline, moral
values, respect for the institution and elders. It therefore depends upon:i. Performance at the previous examination
ii. Discipline at Regularity in attendance
iii. Opinion of class teacher
The above procedure deters students from unacceptable behaviour and conduct.

Give the minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry
level for each of the programmes offered by the college and provide a
comparison with other colleges of the affiliating university within the
city/district.
The Minimum percentage as per the requirements of University is 35 per cent for
B.A, B.Sc., B.Com courses. The minimum percentage is eligibility for admission
which is a pass in the previous qualifying examinations. However the cut-off
admission percentage in the case of different reservation category of students will be
different. Government reservation quota is followed by selection of applicants on
merit order.
The minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry level for each
of the programme offered by the college differs due to reservation rules.

Is there a mechanism in the institution to review the admission process and
student profiles annually? If ‘yes ‘what is the outcome of such an effort and
how has it contributed to the improvement of the process?
We have the admission committee to process admission purely on merit cum
reservations. After the admissions, the same committee will review the entire
process and submit the admitted student list as per merit cum reservations to the
University and Department of Collegiate Education. It is our practice that
readmission to the next classes is not automatic. This is with a view to inculcate good
qualities such as responsibility, discipline, moral values, respect for the institution
and the elders. It therefore depends upon performance at the previous examination,
regularity of attendance, opinion of class teachers, etc. Every year the admission
committee reviews the minimum percentage of marks of each category of students for
admission. However in the case of poor students to aspire higher education
admissions are given under management quota without any extra fee or donation.
There is a mechanism to review the admission process and students profiles.
1. The admissions in the college are done according to the schedule given by the
Bangalore University following the reservation policy of the Government of
Karnataka on merit basis.
2. The complete details of the students are recorded at the time of admission to
repair data base of the students.

academic performance (through the programme duration) of the students at risk
of drop out (students from the disadvantaged sections of society, physically
challenged, slow learners, economically weaker sections etc.)?
The dropout ratio is less than 2% in our college. Even this 2% is also because
of girl students getting married and leaving the college under
compulsion, though sometimes much against their will. We
are
encouraging physically challenged students and economically weaker sections
of students by distributing scholarships from Department of Collegiate
Education and Department of Social welfare. 50% of the fees is reimbursed by
the Government of Karnataka and different scholarships from the Jindal group,
Minority Commission etc., are given to our students. Thereby successful
students will get the financial assistance from different sources. As a matter
of policy, failed candidates will not be given scholarships. The lecturers of the
institution take personal interest to help students with poor financial background.
The teachers personally pay attention to the academic performance of
the students. The tests and seminars are conducted during the year. After every
semester the result of each subject and programme is analyzed. The
students having poor performance are specially guided by the teachers. The
efforts are made to minimize the drop out percentage of above mentioned
sections.

for their future reference.
Every year, at the end of each semester, first degree students and their parents are invited to
the College functions and they are informed about attendance, progress and discipline of their
wards. Regarding admission for the next academic year, admissions is not automatic. It
depends upon the progress & results of the students. Parents are informed about the progress
of their wards in the previous years. For the newly recruited teachers, concerned Head of the
Department guides them frequently the best practices of teaching i.e. preparation for the
class room, maintenance of attendance, writing the work diary, discipline in the college and
class room.
All the teachers conduct tests and discussions with the students and strictly
inform them on attendance & progress. The principal visits all classes and briefs
students on the following aspects
a) How to prepare for examination
b) What future options are available to them
c) How to improve their conduct & behavior

eligible teachers to the Bangalore University for evaluation of the answer scripts. For
each subject there is internal assessment of 10 marks. These marks are awarded on
the basis of performance of the students in tests, assignments, attendance and
discipline. The internal assessment marks are revealed and announced on the notice
board. As per the Bangalore University CBCS regulations now we conduct two

followed as per the university guidelines.
2.5.3
2.5.4.
How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation
reforms of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?
As per Bangalore University evaluation reforms, the following procedures
are adopted for implementation of reforms.

2) Sitting squad is appointed during examination period.
3) Eligible teachers are deputed for evaluation at Bangalore University.
4) Internal assessment marks are sent through online.

4) Information to the parents on the progress of the student.
5) Appreciation for regular and academically excellent students by way of
scholarships and prizes.
All the above steps have resulted in positive improvement in the results as well as in
the behaviour.

students through the duration of the course/programme? Provide an analysis of the
students results/achievements(Programme/course wise for last four years) and explain the
differences if any and patterns of achievement across the programmes/courses offered.
At the end of every Semester the class teacher collects data on attendance and results
concerning his/her students. The principal monitors the results and attendance. If
necessary the students and parents both are informed about the progress and
attendance. This has alerted the students to be regular to the college.
Tests and Assignments are conducted for the purpose of calculating internal
assessment marks and grades. Throughout the course period of three years, this
procedure is adopted and we have received results in the form of regular attendance
and increased pass percentage in all the subjects. To substantiate, gradually, year
after year our results of percentage subject-wise is increasing.

The College is running UG level courses i.e. BA, course from 1978 and
BSc and B.Com from 1982. Students graduating from our college move to bangalore
for higher education such as MA, MSc, M.Com, & MBA. We are proud to state that
the minimum of 15 students are persuing CA education from various institutions in
Bangalore, Vijayawada and Hyderabad. Proximity of Bangalore to Bagepalli good
roads and frequently operating buses – both government and private - induce
students graduating from our college directly join the Bangalore University for their
further studies. Hence the research activities at the students’ level are not
undertaken because research is not a part of the curriculum. And this is the major

The maintenance and improvement of the campus is undertaken with the help of our
management. The Principal, on the basis of the prospective development plan,
proposes the infrastructural augmentation needs to the management. The management
and the UGC sanctions funds based on the requirements, student strength, and the nature
of the academic programs offered by the institution. The college development fund is
utilized for maintenance and minor repairs of furniture and equipment. The IQAC
prioritizes the activities, estimates the cost and submits it to the head of the institution.
The management approves and allocates the funds. An effective monitoring system
through various committees ensures the optimal utilization of the allocated budget. We
have a centralized maintenance department for the entire society with full time salaried
employees and the expenditure is a part of income-expenditure account. Since
maintenance is a part of monthly expenditure, a separate fund is not allocated.
The institution has UV as well as RO systems to get safe and pure drinking water
all the time as well as cool water during summer to the students and staff members. For
the upkeep of these equipments the professionals are invited according to the needs on
visit and pay basis. They visit and guarantee the regular functioning of these
equipments and facilities. We have UPS backup, inverters and generator to
overcome the problem of frequent load shedding. For the maintenance of the
infrastructure regular attention is paid and professionals are paid service charges.
The financial provision is made through UGC to some extent and the rest
through the management.

against the same aspect laid down by NAAC. The procedure adopted for admissions
to various courses provided by the college is based on student’s academic records.
The rules and regulations set by the affiliating University and the State Government
are strictly followed for students’ admission. The knowledge and skill required for a
particular programme is made known soon after a student is admitted to a course of
study. Apart from the lecture method of teaching, group discussion, field studies,
debates, tutorials, seminars, etc. are adopted for proper understanding of the subjects.
The college has well experienced faculty members. The faculty members of
various departments participate actively in academic programmes. The library staff is
well qualified and their services and experience is used in updating library for the
optimum use of the students. The evaluation methods are communicated to the
students by the teachers in the class rooms and also displayed on the notice board of
the college. The teachers are given full permission to enrich their knowledge through
Seminars, Refresher Courses, Orientation Courses, etc. The college follows the selfRE-ACCREDITATION REPORT

healthy participation in extension programmes. The college is not having a recognised
research centre duly approved by the affiliating university. The scope of research
motivation is very little. However, the faculty is very much aware of the growing
importance of the research based education. The college encourages the teachers for
research work. The college is already having Two Ph.Ds in the Dept. of Kannada ,
Sociology. Many teachers of the college are engaged in active research work. In our

College engages many organizations like Red Cross, Medical Council, N.G.Os
for holding blood donation camps, NSS camps, free medical check-up, youth
festivals, tree plantation festival etc.

requirements, staff recruiting, monitoring and planning professional development
programmes for personnel development and seeking appropriate feedback responses
is very good. There are many staff welfare schemes. Staff training takes place
periodically. The institution recruits faculty members and staff based on the
guidelines provided by the university. Incentives are also given to the staff members.

Within the existing academic and administrative system, the
institution has developed mechanisms of its own for the quality assurance. The
academic quality of the institution is evaluated on the basis of the
performance of the students in their examinations. The teachers also judge
the student’s academic abilities by way of questions-answers and written
tests. The poor students are helped by the teachers to improve their academic
quality by taking extra classes and providing books and literature. The
administrative system also looks after the quality of the education in the
institution. The different committees set up by the institution are always aware
of the administrative needs.
The Advisory Board, the Examination Committee, the Magazine
Committee, the Finance Committee are all constituted and are well equipped
for quality assurance of the institution’s administration.
The academic and administrative systems in the institution have been
quite effective for the enhancement of quality education. The institution has
fool proof mechanism to get the academic and administrative machinery of
the institution in motion. The academic quality of the institution is
maintained by the teaching and learning processes. The administrative quality
is maintained by the effective functions carried out by the various committees.
The two mechanisms are interdependent and, therefore, there is no
scope for any failure in any system. The Head of the Institution conducts
meetings regularly and visits the class rooms to ensure proper delivery of the
material and timely completion of course as per syllabus. Students play a major
role in assuring quality of education imparted by the institution. It is through
their active participation in classrooms that the quality of the education is

maintained. Students are punctual and attend classes regularly. They also
interact with the class teachers and request for extra classes if needed. They
approach the teachers for a solution to their problems linked to their syllabus.
Their participation is also assured by involving them in cultural and other
activities. Students also approach the head of the institution directly for the
redressal of their problems.
The best practices of the institution have been promoted in full
strength. The institution has internalized the best practices in order to
improve the functioning of the academic and administrative systems. The
insistence on student’s participation in academic and administrative matters
has improved the quality of education and administration in the institution.
The students come forward to maintain the best practices evolved through
academic and administrative systems. The administration in the institution is
maintained by the involvement of the staff at every level. The
examinations are held quite smoothly by the active participation of the staff at
every level. Teachers have been quite supportive of the academic needs of the
students by offering them reading materials and tutorials.
The following mechanisms have been developed for quality assurance.
1. Organizing guest lectures
2. Computerization

NATIONAL DEGREE COLLEGE, BAGEPALLI.
The institution has adopted a three tier system where the Governing Council is the
ultimate decision making body accountable to the stakeholders. The IQAC, the
planning body, collects inferences from the learners and various committees through
participatory interactions, based on which it proposes comprehensive perspective plan
to the Governing Council for approval and implementation. The chain of committees
is in charge of implementation of developmental and academic activities assigned by
the Governing Council. The supervision of the Governing Council ensures proper
implementation. The fair representation of the learners ensures the transparency in the
process.
6.5.3
Does the institution provide training to its staff for effective implementation of
the Quality assurance procedures? If ‘yes’, give details enumerating its impact.
The institution ensures that the decisions based on the findings of the IQAC are fully
adhered to. The academic as well as the administrative working is further improvised
by the regular training sessions being organized by the college for its teaching as well
as the non teaching staff. Small workshops over the weekends, in the form of
interactive sessions, have helped the staff of the institution work in a better and more
promising way.
6.5.4 Does the institution undertake Academic Audit or other external review of the
academic provisions? If ‘yes’, how are the outcomes used to improve the
institutional activities?
The college is affiliated to the Bangalore University, Bangalore. The university has its
set of mechanism to inspect and audit the academic working of the college. The
university every year sends a team of experts to conduct academic audit known as
“Local Inspection Committee”. The team visits the college and very carefully
observes the working of the institution in all its aspects. The committee then
comments on the performance and thereby suggests the important changes required.
Similarly the other form of audit comes in the form of the team visiting the
institution as and when any new course is introduced. This committee too, like the
previous one, remarks and suggests the changes desired in the college. The college
very honestly adheres to the recommendations made by the committees.
6.5.5 How are the internal quality assurance mechanisms aligned with the requirements
of the relevant external quality assurance agencies/regulatory authorities?
In the case of the college the external regulatory authority is the affiliating University,
Bangalore University and we make the compliances as per their needs and
requirements.

6.5.6 What institutional mechanisms are in place to continuously review the teaching
learning process? Give details of its structure, methodologies of operations
and outcome?
The institute’s approach to the learning outcome assessment is defined
clearly.
Faculty is best suited to determine the intended educational outcomes of their
academic programs and activities, How to assess these outcomes, and how to use the
results for program development and improvement is a part of student evaluation. The
results of outcome assessment are used to evaluate the effectiveness of academic
programs and activities, and student services, and not the performance of individual
faculty or staff. Faculty uses the information collected to develop and improve
academic programs. The institution has a clearly defined, set mechanism to monitor
the learning outcomes.
Attendance is compulsorily taken during every period of lecture. Tutorials and
laboratory hours are fixed. The tutorials and assignments are corrected within a short
duration and the marks are entered in work register, which acts as a ready reckoner for
the academic progress of the students. Based on the participation in the class and the
marks scored in the tutorials and assignments, the student level is judged by the staff
member and appropriate action is taken.
At the end of each periodical test, progress reports consisting of unit test
results and attendance status are submitted to the office for further action. Counselling
is given to slow learners. Parents of such students are called to meet their respective
faculty member, if required. As the entire lab courses are continuously assessed,
students who lag in these courses are given additional help and guidance. They are
also given additional lab practice. The faculty members are encouraged to conduct
surprise tests, quizzes, etc. to monitor the academic progress of each student.
6.5.7 How does the institution communicate its quality assurance policies, mechanisms
and outcomes to the various internal and external stakeholders?
Any other relevant information regarding Governance, Leadership and Management
which the college would like to include.
The institution has evolved a website i.e., www.nationalcollegebagepalli.org
The website gives the full details about our college governance. Different
platforms like College Advisory Board, alumni, Parent Teacher Meet and various
committees with a fair representation of students are formed. The IQAC in the
planning process considers feedbacks collected from all the stakeholders to prepare
perspectives on development.
These developmental perspectives are discussed in the respective meetings of
Advisory Board, Parent Teacher Meetings and alumni. The reflections of the meetings
are incorporated in the plan. The management has developed evaluation tools for
stakeholders to record their opinions, suggestions and objections for constructive
development for the future.

CRITERIA VII: INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES
7.1
Environment Consciousness
7.1.1
Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities?
There is no formal conducting of green audit in the institution but the institution
is eco-friendly. Lot of expenditure is incurred to make the campus eco-friendly.
7.1.2
What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?
∗ Energy conservation
∗ Use of renewable energy
∗ Water harvesting
∗ Check dam construction
∗ Efforts for Carbon neutrality
∗ Plantation
∗ Hazardous waste management
∗ e-waste management
_ The college campus is totally eco-friendly. For this the management, the head of the
institution and the whole staff is committed and because of their commitment and
involvement, the campus can claim to be the first polythene / plastic free zone. This
apart, the institution has taken several other steps/initiatives to make the campus ecofriendly:
 Energy Conservation:
The college campus enjoys moderate climate through the year. The college
class rooms are so airy and well lighted that they hardly need any artificial
lighting. Still the institution has done away with the orthodox lighting system
and installed CFLs in the class rooms. This has helped a lot in conservation of
electricity.
 Water harvesting:
The drainage water instead of going waste is utilised for the growth of
ornament plants, so that the campus looks colourful, pleasant, vibrant and ecofriendly.
 Efforts for Carbon neutrality:
The College at its own level has taken up certain preventive measures to check
the emission of carbon dioxide. The College has made arrangements for the
parking of the vehicles of the students in the College ground. This helps in
keeping the campus as clean as possible. The dead leaves and the waste papers
are not allowed to be put on fire. The leaves are buried in the soil itself and the
papers are disposed-off.
 Plantation
A lot of expenditure is incurred to keep the environment green. For this the
supporting staff of the College is working very whole heartedly. The trees are
planted regularly. The college organizes programmes like ‘Vana Mahotsava’
every year to inculcate this tradition amongst its students.
Innovations

Track ID – KACOGN11553
108
NATIONAL DEGREE COLLEGE, BAGEPALLI.
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. The College has
been scaling new heights ever since its inception. The college has made several
innovations which have helped smooth out the functioning of the college. These
innovations are in academics, administration and other levels of the college
working.
Feedback mechanism:
Students give the feedback about the teachers at the end of each session/semester.
Students of each department are expected to do so for all the teachers concerned
with their class. Besides, informal interaction between the students and the Class
Teacher/H.O.D./Principal about issues pertaining to teaching quality is also
encouraged. Teachers are counselled by the departmental head and/or principal
regarding measures to improve subject understanding and/or teaching skills.
Computerization of Administrative Block:
The college has done away with the orthodox system of working in the office. The
College administrative block has been fully computerized. The administrative
staff has been given formal training to understand the technicalities pertaining to
working on the technology. This has greatly improved the efficiency of the
administration.
Computerization of Library:
The college has made the library fully computerized. The library is having its
OPAC system. Students are having their web browsing space in the library. The
Library is now fully operating on the computers.
Minimum -Balance Accounts:
The College has facilitated its staff as well as the other internal stakeholders, i.e.
the students by providing them the facility to maintain a Rs.500/- balance bank
account in the bank, State Bank of Mysore, located in the town itself. This has
helped the students in many ways. It has now become necessary for all the students
to open Bank accounts so that scholarships, freeships and other financial benefits
from the state government are directly creditted to their accounts.
Academic Innovations:
The institution has introduced many new innovative practices to help the students
in their pursuit of attaining quality education. The college has introduced remedial
classes for the students. This has helped them to improve their learning abilities.
The College has also started a new innovative technique to help the students
revise their syllabi. The teachers introduced the skill of drafting question banks.
These questions are framed on the basis of the questions being framed in the last
examinations. This has helped ease the burden of the students and improve the
pass percentage.

which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional Objectives and/or
contributed to the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college?
_ TITLE OF THE PRACTICE:- Personalized attention to students through
mentoring systems.
National Degree college, Bagepalli caters to the needs of under privileged
students, especially those who are economically weaker and can’t afford tuitions.
Hence, initiatives are taken by the college to conduct classes for those students
who are very weak in their respective subjects.
STUDENT SUPPORT AND PROGRESSION :
OBJECTIVES OF THE PRACTICE :- The main objective of mentoring
classes is to go beyond purely academic concern towards the all round well-being
of the students and to ensure they gain emotional stability.
NEEDS ADDRESSED AND THE CONTEXT : - Faculty members divide
students according to the competence and each individual is given attention and
encouragement in co-curricular activities and extra-curricular activities. Extensive
remedial teaching is given for academically weaker students. Faculty members
counsel students through mentoring system and special counseling is given for
girls. Also, career guidance and counseling is done for all students.
EVIDENCE OF SUCCESS :- Most of our students, by virtue of their dedication
and commitment, have etched their names in reputed corporate companies as well
as governmental departments. The talent identified and nurtured at the college
admirably helped them to attain iconic status in the fields of Art, Literature,
Cinema and Media. Most of our students have become distinguished personalities,
legal luminaries, politicians and statesmen, efficient administrators, capable police
officers, successful entrepreneurs, etc, and have brought laurels to the college.
