Vidyavahini College

Vidyavahini College is located right on SIT Main Road in Tumkur. It is a pretty busy area of Karnataka, so there is always a lot of movement outside our gates with buses and bikes going past. The college has been here for years, and most people in the 572104 area know the building. It’s not a very modern-looking place with glass walls; it’s more of a traditional concrete structure that stays cool even when the sun is beating down on the road. Students are always hanging around the entrance or sitting on the steps near the office between their classes. We spend our days dealing with admissions, checking attendance, and making sure the classrooms are ready for the next batch. The bells ring quite loudly, which you can hear from the street. It’s a straightforward environment. We don’t go for big advertisements or anything like that. People mostly come here because they live nearby or their older siblings came here before them. Sometimes the electricity goes out and we just have to open the windows wider to let the breeze in and keep going. It is just a regular college where students come to get through their courses and hopefully find a job later. There is a lot of paperwork to handle, and the office stays fairly cluttered with files and ledgers. We just keep doing the work every day, year after year, without much fuss or any big changes.
