The Cafeteria on the college premises is a large, open area where we find students gathering to satisfy their appetites. Made up of well spaced seating arrangements, the cafeteria is the favorite spot for the students who hang out during breaks to catch up with friends, placate their grumbling stomachs, and write notes and assignments.

It is spacious and airy and boasts two counters that serve hot, tasty, and hygienically prepared meals and snacks. The college is particularly careful about the items that are sold to the students and staff. The cafeteria therefore provides freshly cooked food items and almost no junk food. The spread is a mix that caters to the culinary interests of both North and South Indian foodies.

Large classrooms with strong teachers lead to great outcomes for college students.

At least that’s the common wisdom: we’ve all read about teachers’ unions and parents protesting increasing class sizes during state budget cuts and deploring the decline in learning that happens when one teacher has to manage 50 or more students in class. One of the key appeals of students, and Professors, are smaller class sizes.

Students need to be in classrooms that inspire them - spaces that are light, airy, and filled with examples of work that they aspire to do.

The college conducts several seminars and conferences throughout the academic year. For this important aspect of higher education, the college has a multi- facility Seminar Hall. It has a seating capacity of 500 and is well-equipped with audio-visual aids. The Seminar hall is regularly available for all the departments to host guest lectures and run high-end panel discussions. The various departments organize seminars, colloquiums, and conferences. They run academic and creative workshops and cultural activities all year round.

Conferences all year round are held in the seminar hall on a wide range of themes. The seminar hall is also used to screen relevant films and documentaries for students that relate to their syllabus or specifically to a text that they are reading in class. Film festivals are organized, and films that are based on issues relevant to our students or adaptations of literary texts are screened in the multi-purpose Seminar Hall.

One of the main problems faced in Kanina City by college students is parking. The hassle of your two or four-wheelers being towed away is a daily risk. This causes a loss of time and disrupted schedules. To reduce the anxiety amongst staff and students caused by issues regarding parking, the college ensures that vehicular parking areas are demarcated to provide safe parking for both students and faculty. The parking lot for faculty members is manned by efficient support staff. The students are allowed to park their two-wheelers within the college campus. Though we are located in the heart of the city, our green campus sets aside parking areas to meet the challenge of parking space that students and staff would otherwise encounter.

The college plays a supportive role in encouraging students to participate in sports activities. The students participate in sports ranging from Shuttle Badminton, Athletics, Basketball, Volleyball, Cricket, Taekwondo, and Throw ball. Indoor games such as table tennis, Chess and Carrom are played on campus. Badminton and Basketball are played by students on campus in their leisure time. The college has a qualified Sports Director. A moderately equipped gym with exercise equipment is available for use by students and staff.
