Student Body
The university has about 12,000 regular students. There are six halls for students, including four halls of 1,507 seats for male and two hostels of 1000 seats for female students. A new female hostel named Sheikh Hasina hall is constructing. This capacity is not enough and students usually live in two adjacent cities, Kushtia and Jheniadah. The university has approximately 42 buses (both owned and hired) to bring those students to the campus.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or body:
“Many a poor sore-eyed student that I have heard of would grow faster, both intellectually and physically, if, instead of sitting up so very late, he honestly slumbered a fool’s allowance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Alas! While your ambitious vanity is unceasingly laboring to cover the earth with statues, with monuments, and with inscriptions to eternalize, if possible, your names, and give yourselves an existence, when this body is no more, why must we be condemned to live and die unknown?”
—Thomas Paine 1737–1809, U.S. writer and magazine editor. Pennsylvania Magazine, pp. 362-4 (1775)
