“1. Sist campus is located in a very remote, interior, and undeveloped area in india with no electricity, no running water, and no sewage system. Due to shortages, steel and cement are rationed and not readily available. The government has established a small quota of such products that is available for purchase through the government. Sist staff expended much time and effort to receive the government quota of necessary construction materials. In this remote area, nearly all construction is performed by hand. Bricks and other necessary construction materials are manufactured by hand on the site. Other materials are not available in this remote, undeveloped, impoverished, and underprivileged area. 2. Major construction work was done on the sist main campus building. The 2nd half of the building was completed. This includes structural concrete work, brick laying, roof pouring, plastering, concrete flooring, etc. Campus was wired to supply electricity through a generator. 3. Main building courtyard was filled and landscaped with huge amounts of dirt being hauled in to fill and level. The courtyard was connected to a series of drainage systems to drain rain water from inner court yard during the long monsoon season. 4. Rain gutters were installed around the main building. 5. Main entrance steel gate was built and installed for the main building entrance. 6. Tube wells were dug to supply potable water for the institute, lavatories, hostel, kitchen, etc. 7. Another smaller multistoried building was constructed adjacent to the main building. This building houses a ground tube well, submersible pump systems, water storage tank, back-up power generator, electrical main switches, general storage, etc. This allowed the campus and hostel to have running water. The building was completed from beginning to end. 8. Underground sewer tanks were constructed to meet the sanitation needs of the bathrooms and urinals. 9. A third large building was constructed adjacent and opposite the generator house. This was a large, spacious, multi-roomed, well fitted lavatory building to meet the needs of the institute and hostel. This building was started and completed. The bathrooms were fully furnished with plumbing, electricity, etc. 10. Underground electric cabling and water pipelines were run long distances to connect the water supply from the generator house/pump house to the lavatories, institute, hostel, etc. Thus all buildings on campus are supplied with water and electricity. 11. Eventually, electricity became available a great distance away. Government would not pay to bring a line to the institute. At great cost and extensive effort, sist ran a line all the way to the nearest location of public supply. All wiring and electrical poles were paid for by the institute. The public electric supply, however, is extremely unreliable with multiple daily outages. Additionally, it also is rationed by the government. Thus, the generator remains an important component of the infrastructure which allows the institute to supply power to its faculty and students most of the day. 12. Extensive efforts were undertaken to strengthen and weatherize the campus buildings to withstand winds and rains of the monsoon season. Due to weather extremities, the majority of buildings and other structures in the area are washed away or destroyed during the monsoon season. Ground levels were raised extensively around all buildings to protect and buttress the foundations. For this purpose, countless loads of dirt were trucked in. Subsequently four foot granite sidewalks were then laid around the buildings. Black granite was transported and placed side by side around the buildings. This granite is rough ground, cut from a local mine not the polished decorative type to which we are accustomed. 13. The institute is located on a mountainside over former terraced over-farmed rice plots. Massive landscaping was required in front and around the buildings to level ground level. 14. Perman”

“22. Advanced irrigation systems were set up to provide water for the new initiative. This includes the drilling of two tube wells and another two open wells. 23. The institute main office has also seen major construction and improvements over the last number of years. Additional rooms were constructed for storage purposes. The boundary wall around the office has been heightened and extended for security reasons. Additional landscaping and beautification has been done. 24. The institute originally started, offering only +2 and +3 science (pcm & cbz pass only) courses. The institute obtained permanent state concurrence/recognition for +2 and +3. 25. The institute subsequently obtained permanent affiliation from chse for +2 and permanent affiliation from utkal university for +3 sciences (pcm & cbz pass only). 26. The institute subsequently applied and obtained permanent recognition/concurrence for opening +3 chemistry science honours. 27. Thereafter the institute obtained permanent affiliation from the university for chemistry honours. 28. Because of the increased demand from the public, the institute applied and increased the number of sanctioned seats in chemistry. 29. Soon after, the institute applied and opened up +3 science honours courses in all other subjects, i.e., botany, physics, math, zoology. This institute is now currently only the 2nd college in the district to offer science honours courses. 30. The institute applied and has opened up another stream of study, i.e., commerce at the +2 level. 31. Application has been made to add commerce stream at the +3 level. 32. Application has been made to add subjects of geology and officially add computer science at the +3 level and information technology at the +2 level. These applications are still pending approval. 33. The institute has held a very critical inspection and applied to open up courses in pharmacy (diploma). The required noc from the state government has already been obtained. 34. Taking a more practical approach and seeing the needs of the local community, the institute has applied to open up vocational training courses (itc/iti). There are masses of under educated students which are not suitable for higher education. Therefore the institute has deemed it wise to open up practical occupation training for this class of students. 35. Seeking to get a head start on opening up professional courses the institute has applied to open up courses of study offering bba and bca degrees. 36. The institute has seen a massive student influx over the years. The institute has changed course a bit and started to admit students from other parts of the state. This is a new strategy implemented by the institute to develop more student diversity and competition on campus. 37. The institute started offering fundamental computer training courses to students. Most students admitted, have never touched a computer before. We provide a unique opportunity to these underprivileged students. 38. The institute has applied and has been designated as a regional computer sams resource center. 39. Classrooms and lecture halls have been equipped with audio visual equipment. Audio visual material is often used during instruction. Audio visual seminars are conducted regularly on various topics. 40. Prominent guest professors are invited regularly to conduct seminars/talks on various subjects and topics. Such guests are usually outstanding, eminent personalities such as the ex-vice chancellor of utkal university. 41. Parent/guardian meetings are held regularly to discuss the progress of the students. 42. The institute is usually the chosen destination to host the annual high school science exhibitions competition. 43. The institute likewise conducts its own internal science project competitions among students. 44. The institute continued its tradition of conducting regular annual functions and festivities such as annual function, picnics, sports competitions, etc. 45. Regular faculty/staff council me”
