During the inspection of the Rajkumar College, Rajkot, on the February
4th, 1939, I was associated with the Educational Commissioner with the
Government of India.
2. The last two reports on this College clearly indicated that of recent
years it had failed adequately to fulfil the function of a Chiefs’ College.
n the report of 1937-38, reference was made to recommendations by the
Edneational Commissioner for the introduction of ‘‘drastic changes in the
curriculum and staff to he made under the aegis of the new Principal,
Mr. TI. W. Barritt ; that the Cambridge School Certificate should be ultimate
educational goal of the College, replacing the old Diploma and lastly the
question of the liberalization of entry into the College should be examined
with a view to widening the field of possible entrants.”’
3. During the year under report a great deal of work preparatory to
the introduction of ‘these changes has been accomplished. The opening of
the College ‘to others than the relatives of the Princes and Chiefs of
Kathiawar: the substitution of the ‘‘Kathiawar Public School’’ for the
(present appellation “Rajkumar College’; revision of the fees; and neces-
sary changes in the Stafi and curriculum are among the measures in process
of introduction.
4. The objects to he achieved by these changes are the raising of the
standard of education which had been deplorably low, and the consequent
restoration of confidence in the College from which a considerable increase
$n the number of entrants might confidently be anticipated.
5. It is of primary importance that the Heirs to the States and Talukas
should receive good moral training and be fitted by contact during the
educational period with boys in other walks of life, to rule their State with
dignity, tact and efficiency. This can scarcely be achieved unless the
number of pupils can very considerably be increased above the average of
40 which has been the total in recent years. Among 40 boys varying in
ape from 6 to 18 years there can be very few of a like age among whom
any particular boy can form companionship and shape his character.
The financial aspect is equally important—unless the College can be
brought.-by increase:in the number of students, within reasonable distance
of being self supporting, it is unlikely that the Chiefs will be willing to
provide much longer the high subsidy for education at present involved. ;
§. The Rulers of the larger States have acquired the habit of sending
their sons out of Kathiawar for education—either to Europe -or elsewhere
in India.
