->> 1.THE UNIVERSITY AND SCHOOLS OF STUDIES


Established in 1969, the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has in more than 39 years of its existence carved out a distinctive niche for itself in the academic and intellectual life of India. Originally conceived as an institution that would embody Jawaharlal Nehru’s visions and ideals, the First Schedule of the University Act emphasizes the principles for which he had worked during his life time: “national integration, social justice, secularism, democratic way of life, international understanding and scientific approach to the problems of society.” Without deviating from these initial objectives, JNU nevertheless, over the years, has been attempting great deal more, participating in new adventures of ideas, experimenting with innovative methods of research, taking intellectual initiative and expanding the frontiers of knowledge. It has become in the process a more appropriate living memorial to Jawaharlal Nehru than any static monument could ever has been, testifying to the wisdom of the 12th century Kannada poet Basavanna who said:

..... things standing shall fall
but the moving shall ever live.

The once rugged terrain of the Aravali range where the 1000 acre campus is situated is now covered with greenery, brightened by a profusion of bougainvillaea and lively young people from far and wide. JNU attracts students from all over the country and abroad and from diverse strata of society, creating a vibrant composite community in the campus, reflecting in a microcosm Jawaharlal Nehru’s dream of an integrated nation. To maintain the national and the democratic character of the University an All-India admission test is conducted at various centres, spread across the country from Ahmedabad to Shillong and from Srinagar to Thiruvanthapuram. Residential facility is provided in the 16 hostels on campus which accommodate some 4600 students. Inclusion of students from the underprivileged castes and ethinic groups is ensured through the 22.5% reservation policy. Overseas students, who form about 10% of the annual intake, enrich the cultural and intellectual life of JNU. There is a long tradition of holding serious after-dinner meetings in the hostels to which the students often invite well known public figures, writers and intellectuals. The Students’ Union election, another democratic convention of JNU, is conducted annually entirely by the students in a lively but peaceful manner, without any intervention from the faculty or administration.

The faculty also represents a national cross-section, and many of the academic staff live on the campus. Instead of being segregated in one part of the campus, the faculty houses are interspersed with the hostels, an arrangement which contributes to an atmosphere of easy and informal student-teacher interaction. ..
