Since, the date for assembly elections has been declared as 16.05.2016, the code of conduct came into effect immediately.

Only 40 people in India are selected for the award from different fields like Health, Corporate Sector, Individual Achiever, Education etc., Out of 40 only 5 people are selected for Education and our Secretary is one among the five achievers selected for education.

At the same time, I will be failing in my duty, if I do not mention the co-operation extended to me by our teaching and non-teaching staff. I have to thank my loving children – students who are my strength and power. I am deeply indebted to the team of Vice-Principals Dr.N.Ramani, who is completing her 6th year as Vice-Principal, and Dr.GV.Gopinath, who is completing his 2nd year term respectively 2 who had spent more time in the college than with their families. Their dedication to the college is commendable. With a view to promote the educational attainment in this backward District and also to alleviate the unemployment problem due to the lack of educational qualifications, Arulmamani Thiru.N.T.S.ARUMUGAM PILLAI started this temple of learning in the year 1965 by pooling his hard earned money on a foreign soil. His philanthropic foresight has brought out this First Grade College offering undergraduate courses in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Zoology, Computer Science, Information Technology, Economics, History, English Literature, Business Administration, Commerce, Post Graduate courses in Economics, English, Commerce & Mathematics, M.Phil courses in Economics, English, Commerce, Ph.D in Economics, Diploma Courses in Personnel Management & Industrial Relations, Office Management and Certificate courses in Spoken English. Our management has started Arumugam Pillai Seethai Ammal College of Education by offering B.Ed., program from 2006-2007. The dream of our Founder to provide higher education to the needy people has been successfully completed by our former President Thiru.N.A.R.Nagarajan. The dream of providing opportunities to do professional courses has been successfully fulfilled by the sons of Thiru.N.A.R.Nagarajan, by starting Arumugam Pillai Seethai Ammal College of Education. I am also very glad to inform that the Economics Department of our college has been upgraded as a Research Department from 2006-2007. The Departments of English, Maths, Commerce & Business Administration Departments have also been upgraded as Research Department from 2012-2013. The college is registering a steady and continuous growth year by year. This achievement is made possible by the unstained efforts taken by our revered Founder and its illustrious sons and grandsons. STUDENTS STRENGTH: Even though arts and science colleges have registered a decline in students‟ strength due to the upcoming of a number of professional colleges, the strength in our college is always on the increase because of the quality of teaching of our untiring and elite staff aided by campus discipline.
