The approach to the university is being restricted to ease the flow of traffic, give better security and provide appropriate introduction to a set of higher learning. The Works and Services Complex is also under construction and we intend to move into the complete |(major) part of it within the next few weeks. All these projects are being executed with an eye to aesthetics, for we recognize the important influence of a beautiful and healthy environment on its inhabitants and feel that a cluster of buildings on a small space such as we have should be so well designed as to have a beneficial psychological and sociological effect on all members of the community.
