Four new Programmes such as MA English, MSc Mathematics, BBA, and BSc Physics have been applied for and the university recommendations have been obtained. Efforts are on to get the new courses started.

2. Innovations in curricular design and transaction: Restructuring the Under Graduate Curriculum was undertaken and implemented with a lot of enthusiasm in the year 2009-10. The hallmark of the initiative was that a well defined curriculum was designed and set in place to achieve certain concrete objectives. Six of our senior teachers were either Chairman or members of various Boards of Studies (UG) of various universities of the state. A new curriculum was designed and innovative syllabi were formed to meet the curricular objectives. It was a totally new experience for the teachers as well as the students to follow a new pattern based on credit and semester. English and Second Language adjusted themselves into a newly defined responsibility of catering to the needs to address issues such as mastering the skill of academic writing, communication skills, contemporary issues, gender and environment and inculcating a scientific temperament. Continuous assessment took the place of annual examinations. Modules such as seminars, assignments, multiple level questions promoting interdisciplinary enquiries were introduced. Altogether the UG restructuring was an attempt to address the long desired curricular change in the direction of quality enhancement.

6) A book fair with low priced books was also conducted by the college union to cater the needs of students.

7) The college union was instrumental in bringing the D-Zone youth festival of the University of Calicut to the college for the first time in its history. The college union led from the front and made the festival a grand gala success. The festival infused great enthusiasm and vigour among students and motivated tremendously.

8) The college participated in the festival in a major manner. Around 80 students participated in the D-Zone festival by representing the college. The college competed in seven group items. They were Group Dance (Women), Parichamuttu, Group Song, Folk Orchestra, Mappilapattu, Drama (Malayalam) and Mime. In group dance the college team secured first, second and third prizes in Parichamuttu, Group Dance (Women) and Drama (Malayalam) respectively. In Folk Dance (Women), Ms Dinia PS secured first place in a keenly fought out competition. In percussion eastern the college secured second and third prizes. All in all, the college garnered 27 points and came ninth in the festival where around 60 colleges participated.

9) In the inter-zone youth festival of the University of Calicut, the Parichamuttu and Group Dance (women) teams represented the D-Zone and secured third place in both items. It was a remarkable and notable achievement given the rural background of the college. Best Practise The college union activities are conducted in a such a manner that the various activities result in academic discussion of various aspects of its activities and eventually result in social consciousness by realising that every activity has its own resonance and repercussions upon the society and the student need to comprehend this vital yet soul stirring aspect of human interventions. For instance, the long practise in the youth festival of University of Calicut regarding the dance competition was to organise “Group Dance” for men and women. But in the youth festivals organised by the Association of Indian Universities for Zonal and All India Inter-Zone youth festivals, the item is classified as “Folk Dance or Tribal Dance”. Theoretically, the view of the Association of Indian Universities is ideal and logical as under the rubric “Group Dance”, any dance form performed in group is being compelled to accept where undesirable elements are imposed upon students like cinematic/disco/western dance numbers. In this context, the college union took another yet rebellious stand by following the guidelines of the Association of Indian Universities and choreographed original Rajasthani folk dance with the help of Prof. (Dr.) C Venugopalan Nair, (Head of the Dept of Dance, Faculty of Performing Arts, Sree Sankarachrya University of Sanskrit, Kalady) and performed it in the youth festival and secured second place in the D-Zone youth festival and Third place in the Inter Zone youth festival of the University of Calicut.
