tion is getting increasingly deviated from what it intended to be. It is so deviated that while entering the college premises, I look around to ensure no one is watching me, as if I am involved in some anti-social activity. Truly, the activity we are involved in can hardly be called education. It is nei-ther higher nor education. But nobody dare to say so as we have vested interest in it. Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru once rightly said ‘If all is well with the university, all is well with the society’. If society is not doing well, it is education that is to be blamed. Education is all about practicing values and generating ideas. Ideas rule the world and values make them sustainable. But both the

elements are terribly missing from today’s education. It is being underused, if not mis-used. The learning has been taken over by earnings and teaching has been sidelined by so called continuous evaluation. It caters to handful of students by leaving majority of students on their destiny. As the system lacks holistic approach towards inclusive education it is not going to sustain in the long run. It is time to get the fundamentals right instead of going for myopic solutions which will lead us nowhere. Doing things well has no sense unless they need to be done. We do things right, but don’t do right things.
- Dr. Prakash Parab Chairman, Library Committee
The period from April to June 2018 saw a transition phase from outgoing Library Committee and the incoming Library Committee. Dr. Prakash Parab, Head- Department of Marathi took over as the new Chairman of the Library Committee from the outgo-ing Chairman, CA Anil Naik. The new Chairman was briefed about the library activities held during the academic year 2017-18 and also about activities that were planned but could not be organized. The idea behind this was that this briefing would help the new Committee to include these pending activi-ties while planning the roadmap of library activities for the academic year 2018-19.
