Some of the measures undertaken to prevent ragging- on and off the campus.

• Ragging essentially is any conduct by any student or students by words or by action that has an effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness a fresher causing a sense of shame or torment or humiliation or embarrassment to the student.
• Cauvery College of Engineering (CCE) has zero tolerance policy for ragging. The Institute views ragging as an uncivilized, and inhuman practice. We do not subscribe to the view that one could wait till something happens in order to initiate stringent action. Any rigorous action in such cases may damage a young career. So, we repose faith in averting such eventualities. For this, the Institute has a proactive policy.“Ragging in all its forms is totally banned in this institution including in its departments, constituent units, all its premises (academic, residential, sports, canteen/cafeteria and the like) whether located within the campus or outside and in all means of transportation of students whether public or private.”
• Students and parents need not harbor undue apprehensions in this regard. They should report any incident immediately to the college authorities and stringent punishment will be meted out to the culprit(s).
• “If any incident of ragging comes to the notice of the authority, the concerned student shall be given liberty to explain and if his / her explanation is not found satisfactory, the authority would subject him / her to suitable punishment.”
• As per the direction of the honorable Supreme Court of India, the institute will strictly follow the “AICTE Regulation on Curbing the Menace of Ragging in Educational Institutions”.
• Regular coordinator meetings will be convened to discuss the issues if any.
