There is a Chinese proverb which states, “If you plan for a year, sow the seed; If you plan for a decade, plant a tree and If you plan for a century, educate the people”. The founder members of this institution had this noble ideal in mind when they started this college.
It is said that when a person crosses a river, he ought not to forget that he has left the other bank behind. This college has seen the light of the day due to the Herculean efforts of some of the elders of Ilayangudi. Janab. Ameen Nainar Howth sounded the idea of establishing an Arts and Science College in Ilayangudi.
The unique feature of this college was that unlike other colleges, this College was not started by any single rich man or business people...
“To emerge a world class academia in dynamic equilibrium with its social, ecological and economic environment, striving continuously for excellence in educational service to all sections of the society including minorities and the under privileged section.”
Our Mission
“The motto of the college is a verse of the Holy Quran revealed to Prophet Mohamed (Peace be on him) “READ IN THE NAME OF THY LORD”. With this aim, the college aims at providing higher education to the rural people in and around Ilayangudi, especially the marginalized people of this locality.”
