Student self Governance
“EVERY student has the freedom to explore, take on challenges, and co-create innovative solutions with peers.”
Srushti Degree College, began with a bold experiment of Student Self-Governance. We do it by giving responsibility & authority to students, to participate in their learning & development. They run the student’s affairs like making rules, handling peer issues, and conducting student programs. From our experience through the last decade, it has been a great way for both students and faculty to know each other better on campus.
Student Self-Governance team is chosen by students and faculty. They follow ::
- Honour Code
- Hold Open spaces meetings
Co-creative leadership training
Honour Code:
Integrity is an important value on Campus for meaningful learning to happen.

“I will not cheat, lie, steal or abuse others”.

Open space meetings:
This is held by the Self Governance team often, to listen, dialog and co-create with their team. These meetings provides spaces to sort out issues and build consensus, when in conflict.
