Legal
education in Tamil Nadu is under several limitations. The number of
Law Colleges in the state is very low when compared to other states.
Normally the applicants wish to opt for GLC Chennai (due to its High
Court connection and metropolitan status) and GLC, Madurai (due to
the presence of High Court Bench in the City). Coimbatore is a city
which is developed by means of private contribution. Due to the lack
of private Law colleges, the GLC is the only source of legal
education for the districts of Coimbatore, Tiruppur and Nilgiris. Here are some
pros and cons of the College,
Pros...
- The college has a huge library with all leading books available.
- The college has hostel facilities for both girls and boys.
- The college was approved "permanent" status for its infrastructure by the Bar Council of India.
- The city has a combined Court complex which consist of Courts of all jurisdictions which will serve as a lab for the students.
- The climate of the city will be pleasant for students, this is one of the reasons for the presence of numerous educational institutions in the city.
- The students can easily find a part-time job to make up their accommodation and cost of studies.
Cons...
- The College is in lack of proper drinking water facility.
- I never recommend the hostels due to lack of proper mess for the inmates. Students were advised to arrange accommodation outside the campus on their own.
- There is less importance to the extra-curricular activities. Only sport meet of Tamil Nadu Dr.Ambedkar Law University will be paid attention. This leads to non selection of some talented athletes and players due to less in-take
- Students have to attend Inter College Culturals, sport meets and Moot Court competitions on their own risk.
- The distance between the Combined Court Complex and the College is nearly 15 Kms, students who wish to attend Courts has to spend more time in travel.
- Cost of living in Coimbatore city has gone high due to the presence of huge number of educational institutions and IT companies.
