Challenges:

Rural colleges, educators, and students have different experiences than their urban and suburban counterparts. By their very nature, schools, colleges and districts in smaller-sized communities encounter obstacles in recruiting and retaining talent, establishing community partnerships, and facilitating students’ access to college.In recent years, even as dropout rates have decreased across the country, rural areas continue to face additional challenges in graduating students from colleges. Some of them belong to the very first generation of college goers from the families. Secondly it also becomes a challenge to sometimes convince the parents of girl child to ensure their education where parents are more eager to get them married off.

Opportunities:

When the members of the educational institutions are provided with equal rights and opportunities in education, then they are able to benefit in number of ways. These include, incurring satisfaction, developing motivation, diligence, and conscientiousness and feeling pleasurable and contented, particularly towards the implementation of their job duties. The college makes sure that every student is treated equally and also considering their special needs. The college organizes special classes for weak students and help them to overcome their fears by guiding them to correct life choices to empower them.
