Faculty:
The faculty at our college is a mix of inspiration and challenges. We have two incredible teachers who truly stand out, and they are the heart of our academic experience. They go above and beyond, motivating us every single day, even during the most stressful times. They put genuine effort into teaching, making sure that we understand concepts clearly and feel confident in our abilities. These teachers don’t just teach; they inspire. They always find ways to encourage us, showing patience and understanding, and they are the reason many of us feel supported in our academic journey.
But then, there’s the Head of the Department (HOD), and the experience with him is completely different. Despite being in such an important position and pursuing a PhD, he doesn’t contribute much to our academic growth. It’s frustrating to see someone in his role who struggles with basic skills like using MS Word. He rarely makes an effort to lead or improve the department. It feels like he’s just there, doing the bare minimum, and that lack of involvement affects all of us. What’s worse is that he teaches Abnormal Psychology in the sixth semester—a critical subject for our field. Yet, he doesn’t have the necessary clinical background or the teaching ability to do justice to it. His lectures lack depth, and his explanations are often unclear, leaving students confused and disheartened.
The most challenging part, though, is his approach to exams. Unlike our other teachers, who grade us fairly and encourage us to express our understanding in our own way, the HOD expects us to copy his answers word-for-word. There’s no room for personal interpretation or creativity in his assessments. Even if we provide accurate and well-structured answers, he deducts marks simply because we didn’t phrase them exactly as he would. This rigid and unfair marking system takes away the joy of learning and leaves us feeling demotivated.
The course structure itself is well-planned, offering a wide range of topic
