Educational tour to Historical and Heritage centers
Study of local culture and Historical places
Thanks to the new inventions in the field of Science and Technology, information is sought instantaneously. Any institution, including a college has to take advantage to this situation and be prepared to provide information about itself, fully quickly.
Some years back, there was a situation where a parent could not get information about his son/daughter either through him/her or through the Principal in time. In fact, even students were not getting very essential information about their attendance, etc., till the last minute before the commencement of examination.
We are happy that the JSS Women's College (Autonomous) is opening its new website now. This website should cover all essential details pertaining to the college - such as of teaching/non-teaching staff/student strength, curricular and co-curricular activities; Rules and Regulations of the College/University - which will help both the students and parents in a very constructive way
