Hostel's life improves the student's confidence. Here the students are not under the close check of his parents. he has to do his work with perfect independence. He has to make his own bed, polish his won shoes, press his clothes, and manage his daily affairs of life.
Hostel life teaches the value of punctuality to the students. It gives practical training to a student in his mental, moral, and spiritual development. He is bound to study during the study hours. he is not allowed to move outside after certain hours of the night. In this way his habits become regular and he is disciplined.
Hostel life trains the youth for practical life. There is a hostel superintendent but his control is nominal. Hostel administration is totally in the hand of senior students. they are called prefects. Those students who participate in hostel administration learn a lot of organizing skills.
Hostel life gives a special opportunity for the students to study properly. There is no disturbance and one can devote as much time to his studies as one likes. One can also take help from his senior students in the hostel. Then there is a reading room in every hostel. Many daily newspapers and magazines come there The boarders can enrich their knowledge by means of this informative reading material.
Hostel life is a life of understanding and accommodation. When a student enters a hostel for the first time, he finds himself among strangers. There he learns to make new friends. he also learns to face those whom he does not feel fit for his company. Students come to live in hostel from various places in the country. Each student brings his own culture, traditions, and language with him. The students belong to different families having different temperaments backgrounds and habits. When the students mix together, they try to imitate the good manners of one another. In this way, they polish their habits and manners.
The common room of the hostel has an attraction of its own. Boarders enjoy playing indoor games like table tennis, carom, ludo, etc. Then there are annual contests and competitions, among the hostel students. Prize distribution functions are held every year to award the prizes to the boarders who have shown brilliant performance in various fields of hostel life.
Hostel life has its disadvantages also. The hostel students misuse their independence. Some waste their money on gambling and drinking. They become careless about their studies because they have no checks in hostels and some involve in negative activities.
Some hostels are overcrowded and do not provide healthy and comfortable.living. They do not concentrate on their studies due to crowded rooms. Sometimes the roommates having different temperaments fail to compromise with one another.
Our political parties also misuse the students especially the boarders. They form parties and groups. The political parties provide them weapons. They give them shelter. The students then use these weapons in their petty quarrels. But despite the disadvantages of hostel life, we cannot deny its educative value.
