The college has good infrastructure and plenty of clubs.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, but in our department, there is a lot of communication between the faculty. They literally tell us today's to-do list before 1 hour before the college starts. Also, most of the lectures get cancelled, even exams get cancelled, and they don't even let us know unless we contact them.
