Lakshmibai College, one of the premier institutions of higher educations for women was founded in 1965 in memory of Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi, the great warrior, patriot and freedom fighter. It is a constituent college of the University of Delhi and is managed by the Governing Body nominated by the University of Delhi on the recommendation of the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi. The college has its own building with spacious lawns and staff quarters. It has a locational advantage by having close proximity to the University of Delhi. It is surrounded by picturesque Ashoka Gardens in front and, a belt of green nurseries and Picnic-Hut, a tourist resort, on the right side. Lakshmibai College is proud of the academic commitment of its faculty, which has several achievements to its credit and has made valuable contribution to the creation of congenial academic ethos. Our students are deeply conscious of the leadership potential of women and it is our faith that their feminism will inspire them to build a community devoid of adverse discrimination and oppression. Students creativity is evident in wide ranging co-curricular and extra-curricular activities organized by the various societies and associations working under the guidance of staff advisors. The sports wing of the College is vigorous and vibrant, winning many trophies and medals and fostering the spirit of healthy competition. The NCC cadets have enthusiastically participated in training and adventure camps and have won distinctions in mountaineering, firing and parasailing. One of our cadets, successfully climbed Sudershan Peak (21,500 feet) in 1995. The National Service Scheme wing of the college has won tremendous acclaim through dedicated community service by trying to reach out to the under-privileged and handicapped sections of the society and creating in our volunteers a sense of dedicated service. As we look back into the history of the last 41 years we feel a sense of pride and satisfaction that the college has carved a niche for itself in the field of education in liberal arts and social sciences for women. The college is an extended college with about 2300 students on rolls. The college utilizes its resources to the optimum. On Sundays and other holidays, it is a teaching center of the Non-Collegiate Women''s Education Board. We are committed to academic excellence and inculcate amongst our students the values of humanism, training for self-goverance and overall development of their personality. Energy and vitality for College activities comes from a collective sense of purpose, comradeship and social solidarity. We feel a sense of satisfaction and pride that we have grown not only in size, but have been catering to the needs of the society for higher education, and meeting to the best of our ability, the challenges of our modern society. The students can look forward to a more meaningful interaction with teachers as,the teaching and learning process envisages a ramped up role for the colleges. The examination scheme has been recast and 25% of total marks in course have been reserved for internal assessment. This assessment would be based on mid-term examination, tutorial work, class presentations and attendance. The College extends a warm welcome to all the students who would be joining us this academic year. Our illustrious faculty will leave no stone unturned to make their stay in College productive and fruitful.
