ifyi that another Englishman is to be added to the staff as
patie to jeans boarding houses are in charge of resident Motamids,
and are combined in groups under the supervision of the English stafi
as House Masters. There are nine school houses and one for Post-Diploma
students. Something definite has now been done by wa of giving the Prin-
cipal better control over these motamids. As stated in last year’s inspection
report Col. Hanson, Mr. Meade and Captain Beatty co-operate with the
college authorities. Major Rainsford Hannay, Tutor to the two Maharaj
kumars of Jhind and Mr, C. Kefford, Guardian to the grandsons of the
Thakur of Dundlode, both of whom joined the college this year, also co-operate,
6. Buildings—No important new buildings have been added since last
year but the college expects to erect shortly a new temple on a more central
site than the present one and funds are available for this purpose. With
a view to preventing encroachments, unwanted plots of land to the north-west
have been sold and new plots of land towards the south-east, where there
was danger of encroachment, are being acquired. The college grounds have
now been completely fenced, iron gates have been erected at all the principal
entrances at which chowkidars are on permanent duty and a new chowkidars’
lodge has been built at the most frequently used entrance. Electric installa-
tions have now been completed in all the Boarding Houses. I was parti-
cularly struck with the general appearance of the buildings inside and out
and the tidiness of the college grounds.
7. Organisation of the college.—The Post-Diploma course has now been
extended over four years instead of three as before, and the syllabus has been
so revised as to meet the requirements of the Indian universities for admis-
sion direct to their M.A. aud LL.B. classes after completion of this course.
The course is divided into two parts, each lasting for two years—lInter-
mediate and Final—the former corresponding to F.A. and the latter to B.A,
At the time of my visit there was no fourth year class. There were five
under-graduates in the first year, seven in the second and six in the third,
i.e., 18 in all. I discussed at some length with the masters in charge the
various problems arising out of the formation of these post-diploma classes.
The students were keen but at present lack a sufficiently wide outlook to get
the best out of the teaching provided. It may be found desirable to deal
with each of the first two years separately. I am inclined to think that this
should be done, at any rate for the next few years. There is a small nucleus
of a library; when sufficient books are available the introduction of some
modification of the Dalton Plan will probably be found useful.
