Great to see real practitioners being invited to teach! Our education system needs more professors of practice who bring actual field experience, not just theoretical knowledge. Hope other universities follow this model.

While I appreciate her work, I hope this appointment is based purely on merit and her contributions to education, and not because she is a celebrity spouse. Our institutions must uphold the highest standards.

Amazing! Her life skills programmes are so needed in our curriculum. Maybe she can help bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world skills at the Vidyapith. All the best to her! 💫

Gujarat Vidyapith has a legacy of Bapu's Nai Talim (basic education). Having someone like Swaroop Rawal, with her focus on inclusive education, can help revive and modernize those principles for today's generation. A very thoughtful appointment.

Interesting to see the 'Professor of Practice' role gaining traction in India too. It's been successful in many Western universities. Her UK fellowship shows international recognition. Hope she brings those global insights to the classroom.
