College NGC

There should be NGC units in each of the classes in colleges too. If it is a college offering different courses of study, it should have a NGC unit for each of the courses and if there are sections of classes, there should be a unit in each of these sections.
Each unit may have 5-10 members for each theme number of students in each class. The membership could be rolling, new set of students included every two months, so that all students are oriented and sensitized towards environmental issues.
Initially, simple themes could be worked out for students to get used to the sensitized ideology. These students could work on any or all of the five themes of air, water, land, energy and beautification apart from bringing the awareness in the public about the cleanliness in the temples and during the pilgrims, at public places, like parks, museums, etc.
A college NGC unit could be formed with about 50 -100 students picked up from different classes. Each course, class and section should be included in it. It will work under the guidance of five NGC College teachers selected based of their inclination towards environmental work by the head of the college. At the top of this unit will be the head of the institution.
The college unit will oversee the work done by the various NGC units in each of the classes in the institution. The college unit will also set certain works/goals for the different class NGC units every month. It has to also keep the tempo of environmental activity in the college at an active level, always providing it with motivation, direction and thrust.
The gamut of activity that could be taken up may range from a campaign for cleanliness at public places to a campaign to save our temple environs from plastics. Spreading messages for changing attitudes towards celebrating our festivals like a noiseless but bright Deepawali, college students can reach out to the community. Their energy, enthusiasm and motivation will go a long way in persuading people towards environmental action.In professional colleges, students could take up projects for study that involve environmental implications. This will help them mould their actions as a professional once they enter the field.
