The post-graduate extension centre in Villupuram, affiliated to Annamalai University, has constituted a committee to “look after the subject related to admission canvas”.
The committee members, comprising guest lecturers, have been told to scout in nearby colleges for potential students to join the centre. The centre has seven departments and around 400 students. Guest lecturers are upset at being made to run around when their job is to teach students.
The centre, previously attached to Tiruvalluvar University, was shifted to the erstwhile Dr. J. Jayalalithaa University, but was dismantled by the government last year. The government affiliated the centre to Annamalai University and a few surplus faculty members of Annamalai University were shifted to the centre.
