EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Thiruvalluvar Government Arts College, Rasipuram is unique in the sense that it was established decades back during the year 1968 in a rural area, providing quality education with five pre-university courses. Within a short span of one year it was upgraded with degree classes to provide education to the students belonging to the nearby financially backward people. With the financial aid of the local people, the infrastructure of the college was expanded and improved. This resulted in the introduction of many new courses and new buildings were constructed in the year 1971. The college was then affiliated to Madras University, and after the establishment of Periyar University, it is now affiliated to Periyar University, Salem-636 011.
The academic year 1985-86 saw the establishment of B.A. History - Evening College enabling the employed in the vicinity to equip themselves with a degree for their development. As the Department of Computer Science continued to equip itself with upgraded infrastructure, a new building was established. The college further flourished during 2003-2004 with an addition of three main subjects viz B.A. Tamil Literature, B.Com. and M.Sc. Chemistry as self-financing courses. In addition to these courses, M.Sc. Mathematics and M.A. Public Administration courses were started as self-financing wing in 2005-2006. All these courses were upgraded as aided courses in 2006-2007.

The college caters to the people who cannot afford to go to the expensive centres of learning. Education here is not expensive as it caters to the needs of the students of the lower strata of society. Government scholarships are made available to the students belonging to SC, ST, BC, and MBC. The method of admission into this college is structured in such a way that it provides opportunities to the rural and poor students who are meritorious in their educational performance and sports activities. The government policy of reservation is followed here so that the students who get high marks are able to pursue higher studies though they are not able to pay huge amount of fees. The admission procedure follows single window system and there is complete transparency in counseling and admission. Though located in a rural area,

the college introduces courses of latest interest and technologies to the benefit of its students. The teaching faculty and non-teaching community are a boon to the institution. They help the college function systematically. They are a dedicated crew who work for the institution to promote the excellence of the students.
In the examination system, CIA (Continuous Internal Assessment) is practised for 25% and EA (External Assessment) is done through University Examinations. Out of the 25 marks in the CIA, 5 marks are given for attendance, thus encouraging students unfailing attendance, 5 marks are allotted to assignments/seminars, helping the students to be original in their answers, encouraging the students to make use of the books in the library, and 15 marks are allotted for regular tests. In addition, CBCS (Choice Based Credit System) is adhered to as per the system of Periyar University.
Coaching classes are conducted for slow learners and those who have failed in the university examinations. Remedial classes are conducted for SC, ST, and OBC students. All the students are to take part in any of these extension activities – NSS, NCC, YRC, RRC, Rotract. Apart from these activities, there is Women Welfare Cell which takes care of the needs of the girl students inside the campus, ensuring their health and hygiene. All the departments in the college have their own activities carried out through their respective academic associations. They conduct competitions for students giving them platform to bring out their talents. They arrange for special lectures inviting experts in their subjects to give exposure to the students about new avenues and researches in their subjects. Students stand apart in activities related to sports too. They bag prizes at University level, state level, and national level too.
The achievements of the members of the faculty are praiseworthy. Many have presented papers in national and international seminars and conferences, published papers in national and international journals, and delivered special lectures in other colleges as experts in their subjects. Six members of the faculty and one student have been sanctioned grants by UGC, ICSSR, NBHM DAE, and TANSCHE for their research projects. There are 92 members of faculty and out of these 92, 64 have secured Ph.D. degree. They attend many training programmes to equip themselves with latest techniques in their field and in the field of teaching and the benefit of their training goes to students.
For the smooth functioning of the college and to train the students for a disciplined way of life, there are committees functioning in the college. Apart from the teachers counseling the students, there is also a Discipline Committee that directs the students in the right path when they are at crossroads. There are IQAC, Admission Committee, and College Academic Council. There is Alumni Association which brings the alumni together and get engaged in productive activities. There is a Placement Cell that functions effectively that coaches students and trains them to face interviews, arranges campus recruitment drives, and sends students to off-campus recruitment drives. So many of the students of this institution are placed in many positions in MNCs, local companies, and industries.

The students are encouraged to voice out their opinions regarding the methodologies adopted by the teachers. The feedback-forms collected by the departments are one of the effective measures to achieve the objectives. Moreover, the internal assessment and their result are also used as parameters to analyze the achievement of the objectives of the curriculum.

5.2.3 How does the institution facilitate student progression to higher level of
education and/or towards employment?
The faculty members personally guide the deserving students to pursue higher studies (PG, M.Phil. & Ph.D.) in regular stream according to the job requirement of the students. Those students who could not pursue their higher education in regular stream are guided to get employed in some institution or company according to their ability and meanwhile they are advised to do higher studies through distance or part-time mode of education. Thus, the students in all departments are motivated to complete their course of study and to get their degree. Such counseling and guidance are uniformly given regularly. The institution always provides personal care for girl students and encourages them to complete their course and to settle them in good career life.
5.2.4 Enumerate the special support provided to students who are at risk of
failure and drop out?
The dropout percentage is negligible in the institution as almost all the students are provided with all the facilities which they require. All the departments conduct remedial coaching classes to help the poor performers among the students to eliminate their fear of failures and special counseling is done with utmost care to those students who are about to leave their studies. The students who are to discontinue their study due to lack of finance and who have to support their families financially, are given financial assistance to some extent by the members of faculty. The major cause for dropout cases in PG courses is observed that the students who have a B.Ed. degree get recruited as teachers in Government Schools or in Government aided schools or otherwise some students get employed in Government/Private sectors. Girl students who get married in the middle of their course and so are compelled to discontinue their studies, are effectively and successfully counseled along with their spouse and to continue their studies and complete the course.
5.3 STUDENT PARTICIPATION AND ACTIVITIES
5.3.1 List the range of sports, games, cultural and other extracurricular
activities available to students. Provide details of participation and
program calendar.
The following sports and games are available to the students in the institution: Carrom, Chess, Shotput, Javelin throw, Long jump, hurdles, Shuttle cork, Tennis, Table Tennis, Throw Ball, Basket Ball, Cricket, Volley Ball,

5.3.3 How does the college seek and use data and feedback from its graduates
and employers, to improve the performance and quality of the
institutional provisions?
In order to develop better performance and to maintain the quality of the institutional provisions, the institution carries out certain class room procedures from the students which include self assessment, the conventional class room observation and feedback system. Self assessment recognizes the students to take responsibility in making decisions about their self-learning development. These educational assessment procedures support to improve the knowledge of the teachers and the students and enable them to make insightful analysis of their progress. Class room observation provides the information about the progress of the students. It helps the teachers to monitor students’ progress in a systematic way. Every department follows the conventional mode of eliciting questions while teaching.
Apart from the procedures, each department gets feedback from the students, alumni as well as from parents at the time of PTA meetings. During council meetings the feedbacks are discussed and the necessary steps are taken wherever possible.

activities:
Students are participating in all the institutional social responsibility activities and Extension activities like NSS, NCC, YRC, Red Ribbon Club, Eco Club etc. conducted by the college.
35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans
SWOC ANALYSIS
Strengths:
Availability of reference books in the department library
Well dedicated and experienced staff
Academic environment on the campus
Student and staff interaction, teaching approaches
All the above facilitate to provide need based education, impart knowledge and values to students.
Weakness:
Students (input) are from rural and economically poor background and so they are not able to concentrate on their studies as they have to financially support their families too.
As the students are from Tamil medium, they are not able to cope up with the lectures delivered in the class.
Lack of communication skill and inferiority complex hinders the academic improvement
Opportunities:
Industrial visit to validate their theoretical knowledge Special training to appear for interviews and competitive examinations Special lectures by experts from industrial background to know the latest
trends in business and economy Challenges:
It is difficult to mould the rural students to face the outside challenges.
It is equally difficult to develop their communication skills. Students aim only for a degree. They are reluctant to leverage their
knowledge to gain solid footing for getting employment in banks,
industrial organizations, Govt. departments or create own enterprise (self
employment) or doing professional courses.
Self-Study Report – Thiruvalluvar Government Arts College, Rasipuram
330
Future Plans:
To expose the students to trading in the stock exchange through exposure to mock trading
To conduct coaching classes to the PG and M.Phil. students for appearing in NET and SET examinations.
To recommend Periyar University to introduce Certificate Course in Accounting Packages – Tally for improving the employable skills of Undergraduate students.
To arrange an awareness programme to appear for competitive examinations like TNPSC, Banking and Insurance Companies for getting employment.
To develop a model question bank for all subjects. To well equip the department library from which poor students may be
benefitted.
