Convocation day: The Convocation day is a significant event in the life of students as they come out with their degrees and ready to fulfil their aspirations. Hence it is instructed to make this event memorable for students and parents. Colleges are instructed to invite successful and inspiring personalities like Scientists, Academicians, Social activists, Industrialists and Entrepreneurs for the event. The celebration should not be limited to single day and should include exhibitions on student works, best practices display, success stories and panel discussions involving students and parents. College day/Annual day/Sports day: Instead of celebrating in a routine manner, it is advised to design innovative ways of celebrating these days. Students should be completely involved in the execution of the programmes with due emphasis on innovation, creativity, local culture and ethics. The programme should establish rapport with the community and instil a sense of pride and confidence in students.  Parents and relatives of students may also be invited and involved in the programme.

Parents meet: An exclusive day for parents with related programmes shall be conducted. Parents are to be invited to voice their opinions and suggestions.

Publicity should be given to the alumni who are contributing their services to the development of the institution. This day should be used to increase alumni support and should lead to increase in the alumni members. Staff and students should plan for this event and should be celebrated as a day of thanks and gratitude. Women’s day: A day long celebration should involve all women students in the college and successful women (Entrepreneurs, social activists, Professional, Industrialists) should be invited. Programmes should remind everyone our ancient culture of respecting women. The provisions in the laws, rights, success stories, Govt schemes and career opportunities should be highlighted through exhibitions, posters, paintings and other activities.

4.All the above initiatives are recommended for all round development of students and therefore the Principal and staff should conduct the above days in a befitting manner by inviting big Celebrities for the event and due publicity should be given to inspire other educational institutions for the benefit of the student community and in turn the society.
