 MESSAGE FROM VICE-CHANCELLOR
I am pleased to learn that KCS College of Education(Women), Jammu is bringing out the third issue of the College magazine "Kalamkriti".
The University of Jammu is one of the India's premier research and teaching institutions and has been rated by NAAC as an "A" Grade University. I am happy that the KCS College of Education(Women) is also a NAAC accredited "A" Grade College. An "A" Grade University must necessarily consist of "A" or "B" Grade Colleges. It is therefore imperative that the affiliated Colleges of the University of Jammu strengthen their quality enhancement procedures.
I am sure that the College Magazine will provide a platform to the students to sharpen their writing talent and will strengthen the academic activities of the College.
I send my warm greetings and good wishes on the occasion.
