In Balochistan the University of Balochistan has been the prime institution and every year number of students has been increasing, to our mind the primary role of an educational institution does not end with imparting post- graduate academic learning. It must include the development of a sounded personality with an un-avoiding quest for knowledge. One way of accomplishing this task is by providing productive channels and exposure opportunities and activities. This also can be done by the committed leadership, competent and devoted staff and progressive improvement in curriculum and teaching methodologies. Our lives are viewed as living in systems- technological and social. In the course of lifetime, we move from system to system as the years go by. These systems interact, influence and modify each other and affect the behavior of individuals living and working within. We are aware of the fact that the information explosion, spread of education and remarkable advancement in communication techniques in modem times demand mature and better frame minds.
