The Seventh Graduation and
Convocation took place with great pomp and circumstance in cap and gown on
August 8, 2008 when 56 students received their certificates of completion of
B.A., B.Sc. M.A. and M.Sc. degrees of the University of Rajasthan. The Hon. Ministers and MPs could not travel
out of Delhi either because of an emergency Cabinet Meeting or poor weather but
the district administration was represented by SP Dr.
Sharma and Addl. Sp. Shri Maheshwari, and other officers.
Another group of 100 students of the Mrs. Helena Kaushik Women’s Education College College have extraordinary examination results in their B.Ed. examination in 2008: 7 with Distinction, 95 with First Division, and 5 with high Second Division.
It is also remarkable that
more than 90 percent of students at the College are OBC, SC-ST, and Minority
category in addition to being dependent only on income from farming and small
trades - skilled in pottery marking, carpentry, barbers, weavers, cobblers,
gardeners, jewelers, etc. Our students
come from some more than 50 villages in the 30-kilometer radius around the
College.
The College is very proud of
its students for their high results in the University examinations, support to
them from their parents and families, lecturers, staff, public officials in
Rajasthan and at the Center who support this movement to educate rural women at
the higher education level.
