Principal's Message

We are living in the 21st century and the role of education has radically changed over the years. The scope and focus of education has evolved and so has the role of an educator. While it may seem apparent that the role of an educator has been relegated to the sidelines, contrary to popular perception, it has become even more crucial as a voice of reason and objectivity in this fast changing socio-economic landscape. According to the Moore's law theory, while technology and its accessories will keep developing and maturing every 18 to 24 months, the knowledge and perspective that educators bring to the table will continue to expand and strengthen through time. In order to effectively engage students in the development of meaningful knowledge today, the college must also encourage them to put what they have learned into practice and produce results that are meaningful. While technology would play a role, teachers, who serve as facilitators, would bring the desired human touch and give students the chance to develop the critical thinking abilities and values that support responsible learning.

I am in awe of the foresight with which my pioneers have worked over the past years to propel this outstanding institution in the correct direction. The college has been able to expand since it started by developing upon the solid basis of excellent values and the desire to succeed. The goal has always been to strike a balance between academic excellence and compassion and innovation. The objective of education has metamorphosed with the passage of time and the need for the globe. At college, we prefer to create situations where a student challenges their own ability, hence becomes their own competitor and thus keeps improving and rediscovering themselves.

It is the transformation of a college into an educational powerhouse that induces strength within each student to stand on his own. It becomes a source of light that illuminates the mind and soul of the students and spreads the fire of excellence and the warmth of compassion to the darkest crevices of humanity.
