A glimpse of college students
A glimpse of college students of Cotton College, Guwahati in the early 90's. Rickshaws, Ambassador cars, Maruti Gypsy SUV's and mini vans can be seen. Women are seen wearing T shirts, sweaters, sarees or sari and Patiala suits. This must have been recorded during winter.
The College was first affiliated to Calcutta University, Kolkata. It was under this university itself that the institution developed into a full-fledged Degree College and barring Persian, secured affiliation for the Honours course too in all the subjects taught then. However, with the establishment of Gauhati University in 1948, it became one of its original constituent colleges. Although Post-Graduate classes in certain subjects like English, Economics and Botany were introduced in the College at different points of time under Calcutta University itself, such classes had to be finally discontinued as part of economy drive and also because of the establishment of Gauhati University. It was only in 1969 that the Assam State Government decided to introduce PG classes in Physics in the College on a permanent affiliation basis. Subsequently, the benefit of PG classes was extended to other subjects as well and finally on 17th October, 1992, the then Hon’ble President of India, Late Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, at a glittering function held in the premises of the College formally declared Cotton College as a Post-Graduate institution. Today, PG teaching is done in the College in as many as 21 subjects in 20 Departments. Now, the College, which began with 39 students and 5 teachers only, currently has a student enrolment of more than 5000 right from Higher Secondary to the PG level and a regular faculty strength of 189 (Gents - 85; Ladies : 104). Cotton College was accredited ‘Grade A’ by the National Assessment & Accreditation Council (NAAC) in the year 2004, was reaccredited the same grade by NAAC in 2011 and also was reaccredited A++ in 2016. Moreover, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has identified it as a ‘College with Potential for Excellence’ in 2005. The CPE ststus was revalidated 2010 and again in 2015
