Liberal College

You can find us at Taphou Senapati in Manipur. It’s a bit of a drive to get up here, and the roads can be a bit rough depending on the season. The college sits in a spot where you get a good view of the hills around Senapati. It’s a simple building made of concrete and some local materials. Life here is tied to the weather and the local community. When it's clear, it’s a very peaceful place to be, but when the clouds come down, it gets quite misty and damp. Most of the students are local kids from the nearby villages in the district. They bring a lot of energy to the place, even if the facilities are just the bare minimum. We have classrooms with basic benches and a small library area that stays pretty quiet. It’s not like the big colleges in Imphal; things are much more low-key here. We don't have a lot of money for decorations or fancy landscaping, so the campus looks a bit rugged. The staff usually lives nearby, and we all know the challenges of running a place in this part of the country. Power can be a bit hit or miss, and sometimes the internet doesn't work well, but we just get on with things. It’s a decent place for the youth here to get an education without having to travel too far from home.
