The University of Calicut is examining the pass percentage in exams of affiliated colleges in the past five years following reports about a decline in the quality of education.
The Syndicate recently approved a proposal from its standing committee on courses and research to seek reports from college development councils with a break-up of the results from all the courses offered.
In its note to the Syndicate, the committee said that officials should frequently inspect all the colleges and seek explanation from principals. Steps should be taken to address the lapses. All the documents and attendance registrars should be examined.
