the availability of resources

The availability of resources and their distribution within a college setting is a critical factor in determining students’ well-being. The services vary from those that are shared to those that are confidential. For example, transportation and communication systems, the availability and adequacy of lecture rooms, the diversity of library books, proper sanitation, and waste disposal systems, the availability of hostels, proper administration, welfare, accountability in exams, and community support. For a well-balanced college environment, the variables must be at their peak, lest they have a negative impact on students’ success and comfort within their institutions. The survey aims at extracting information regarding the following:

The availability and efficiency of the transport and communication system, availability and adequacy of lecture rooms, library books and their diversity, proper sanitation, and waste disposal systems, availability of hostels, proper administration, security, transparency in examinations and community support. For a balanced college system, the factors have to be at their optimum, lest they negatively affect the students’ performance and comfort within their institutions.
