INTRODUCTION
Girls’ Hostel of Chandernagore College with accommodation for about 36 boarders provides for the students a liberal,
nurturing environment, a “Home away from Home”. A Hostel for the girls has been a long cherished demand of the students
of this College and it became finally operational from April’2019. It is situated in the main campus of the College.
It is a privilege to reside in the hostel as it provides excellent modern facilities. Each room has ergonomically designed
furniture and has been aesthetically furnished.
The Girls’ Hostel has always endeavoured to help the college accomplish its aim to provide girls quality education and a
space for growth and learning. It gives outstation students the comfort of living on campus and access to all its facilities.
The Hostel has played a significant role since its inception in empowering girls often from smaller towns in nurturing their
dreams, their talent providing a safe space for girls who wished to acquire Bachelors or Master’s degree. The hostel authorities,
instead of being stereotypical watchful eyes, train and help the residents grow more independent and stronger during their stay
here. The hostel plays a significant and magnanimous role in taking care of affordable accommodation.
Life in hostel is also about stepping into the space of responsible citizenship. The balance between rights and duties is
carefully calibrated. It is also about being a caring community that celebrates diversity across regional, linguistic,
class, religious and ideological differences and embraces an identity of womanhood that is confident, poised and ready to
grapple with the challenges and opportunities that await them in their future.
