Wall Magazine – Government General Degree College, Mangalkote

Wall Magazine

The academic culture of GGDC, Mangalkote, inspires and nurtures creative expressions of various kinds. The wall magazines published by the Departments of History, Bengali and English are good instance of this. Apart from creative expression, the process of putting up a wall magazine nurtures collaborative mind-set and active participation or involvement of studentsin the management of extra-curricular activities of the college.

The wall magazine of the Department of History, titled ‘Kathabarta’ (meaning conversation or dialogue) emphasizes on the interaction between the students and the wider social collective on larger issues through creative and literary expressions of various kinds, like poems, paintings and short essays.The wall magazine of the Department of Bengali, named ‘Patroput’ (meaning a vessel made of leaves), upholds the literal and metaphorical significance of the departmental wall magazine as a vessel – a container of the literary skills and sensibilities of the students – the leaves. Both of the wall magazines were inaugurated by Dr. Pradipta Kumar Basu, The Officer-In-Charge of our college in 2022. The Department of English also inaugurated a thematic wall magazine in the same year, focusing specifically on nationalism and patriotism.

The revamping of the college wall magazine, named ‘Ektara’, is also in process under the leadership and guidance of the Publication Committee.
