The accent of student
life and activities on the campus is to provide an invigorating and
creative environment which promotes independent thinking and
introspection and leads the young students to become more aware of the
consequence of their own actions. This allows them to weave a pattern of
life which equips them to stand up to the many pressures of community
living, to train them in the making of inferences in everyday
situations, to help them derive more insight into their personal
relationships and to arouse in them a sensibility of aesthetic
experience.
Excellent facilities for the residence to a large number of students,
co-curricular activities, sports and games recreation, shopping, etc.,
have been provided to the students on campus. Special efforts are made
to promote student-teacher interaction. Students Counseling Service has
been set up to assist students in their initial adjustment, as well as
in any difficulties, they may have during their stay at the Institute

The deliberations of the House Working Committee in each hostel are
governed by the Constitution for the House Working Committee. Working
through this responsible body, the students themselves lay down
appropriate norms of behavior to suit different situations and social
occasions in the hostels. The individuals respond to the situation and
to the role, which they are called upon to play through their
participation in the community life of their
hostel. They begin to learn their role in different groups and observe
the patterns of behavior and attitude, which are expected of them.
