Yes, exactly. Compulsory attendance is necessary in college because a student leaving at home or in a room is distracted by many ways like phone or there are a lot of ways of distractions. I think attendance should definitely made compulsory but with some changes in our education system. We should make it compulsory by creating interst in student' s mind. If we are unable to create interest or curiosity in student's life then we should make them free to take there own decisions.

As per my opinion,
I will not agree with compulsory attendance because it will ruin creativity of students at least 60%. I think 50 percentage of attendance is enough after that leave the students freely and make the subject clear head. Make them learn on their own and explain to them if they need. Practical learning is more important than a classroom lecture. Practical implementation is more important than by-heart. Don't force them to try to educate and help them to elevate.

I believe attendance should be compulsory in colleges because there is always something we could learn even from the dullest professor of college. They have this powerful weapon called experience. Beside this attending college is really good for the social environment. We not only gain theoretical knowledge but also we learn many new things. However its the responsibility of professors to show some leniency if the student is actually busy in any productive project or something.

I think compulsory attendance is not needed in college it is the place where we enhance our qualities and learn new things but if we continue to attend college we really have no time to improve this. We join college not only to study but also to learn new things that help us to fight in this world of competition.
Practical knowledge is more important than theoretical knowledge. We may pass all semesters but if we are not able to explain there is no meaning of that study.

I Think attendance should not compulsory in colleges. I am not saying you don't need to come college but if you are coming college only for attendance then there is no sense for coming. As you all know that there are three types of students one who is intelligent second who is average and the third one who just want to attend college only for fun. I think the 70% attendance should be sufficient for all students who are seriously attending the classes on regular basis.

In my opinion, the compulsory attendance of 70% in college is really needed for all students because they can gain their knowledge and learn important things. If there are no compulsory classes in college may be students are using their college as a park whenever they come whenever they do not come in college. Teachers should make thought about students and that is an educational place so there is a particular discipline that should obey to all students.

Attendance should not be made compulsory because students should get chance to learn new things which is only possible when they will do some extra activities. And it should be made compulsory only in 1st and 2nd year because discipline is also an important thing. Minimum attendance should be 60%. Attending to college activities should be made compulsory rather than attendance because study and participation in extracurricular activities both are equal.

Hi Guys,
I think the attendace is not mandatory because of attending all the lectures it means total waste of the time, all the teachers are not teaching as fresh mind and some are the boaring lectures, if the attendance crieria is 40% then it will be fine for us, because of final year and third year students busy in project or the some private classes if they attending the all lectures then they can't do remaing things, so no attendance is no matter.

Hi everyone,
According to my point of view, there should not be regular attendance to the students. Because attending college on regular basis makes them qualitative, not quantitative. To increase the quatitiveness of students, college should not be compulsory.
Nowadays, in today's, students can do his/her studies on their own basis by taking the help of technology and clearing concepts. So I think college should not be compulsory as 75%.
Thank-you.

Hi friends!
The attendance system has both advantage and disadvantage.
ADVANTAGE:
Attendance not only reflects the punctual of the students but also their behavior. Some of the students will escape from classes and involve in lot of bad activities if it s not maintained.
DISADVANTAGES:
Some of the students do part time work along with his students and few will do some interested courses. In these cases, definitely the system will not support them.
