Staff are divided into
two shifts. Moreover,
teachers teach till 2 pm
even on Thursdays.
Because of these,
committee members
may have difficulty of
coming together to sit
for a meeting.
Possible
This may delay

Decisions made
without a quorum
will not be valid.
Moderate
Maximize the use of

available at the college.
Identify the availability of all
members by looking at each
individual’s timetable, and set

Level coordinators are

related to assessment.
For instance, Level

35 Lack of funding Research and

Since there aren’t any
dedicated funds to the
research wings of the
college, it is difficult
to organize activities
that involve external
resource persons.
Possible
A few research
projects that
require funding
may not be
carried out.
Moderate
The Centre needs to
channelize their existing funds
in such a way that RCC gets

Students lack of
