Manorama Devi Somani College is situated on Sophia Campus in South Mumbai, which houses a number of educational institutions, all of which are run by the Society for the Higher Education of Women in India (SHEWI). This educational trust was established by the Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, an international congregation of religious sisters dedicated to Education. The word ‘SOPHIA’ means ‘Wisdom’. Besides this, Sophia is also derived from the name of the foundress of the Society of the Sacred Heart, Madeleine Sophie, a French woman who lived in the late-eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and who pioneered a network of educational institutions with a focus on the education of girls. Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College is a Christian minority institution, but it welcomes students from all socio- economic strata of society and from all religious backgrounds. Though it is a co-educational institution, the education of women and empowering them with professional skills is of special importance to us. SHEWI has been engaged in the field of Higher Education since 1941 through Sophia College, and of Technical Education since 1970 through Sophia Polytechnic. At the time when Sophia Polytechnic was founded in 1970, most technical / professional courses were diploma courses and, therefore, Sophia Polytechnic conducted only diploma courses. More recently, there has been a growing demand for technical / professional courses that are degree courses. In 2007, with the express intention of starting degree courses within Sophia Polytechnic, the Management asked for affiliation to the University of Mumbai to open a degree college within the Sophia Polytechnic building. The permission was granted by the State Government and the University of Mumbai and this was the origin of Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College. In 2009, the degree programme in BSc Hospitality Studies was started at Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College. Very recently, the one-year media course that has been run in Sophia Polytechnic, namely the post- 2 graduate diploma course in Social Communications Media (SCM), has also been brought under this college, via the MoU signed between our Institute and the University of Mumbai’s autonomous Garware Institute of Career in Education and Development. At present, there are two departments in Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College: SophiaHAFT (HAFT – Hotel Administration and Food Technology – Department) and SCMSophia. The latter conducts the one-year post-graduate diploma course in Social Communications Media (SCM). The HAFT Department has the following courses: a) UG: B.Sc. in Hospitality Studies (Three year comprehensive degree course affiliated to the University of Mumbai) b) One year full-time Certificate Course: Craftsmanship in Bakery and Patisserie (institute course) c) Short-term, part-time courses: Dynamics in Bakery and Patisserie (part time institute course in three parts/ modules - a) Basic b) Intermediate c) Advanced (a person can choose to do just one of these modules or can do two or all three) Although the Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College was only started in June 2009, it must be mentioned that both the courses conducted by HAFT as well as SCM have a long history going back to the early 1970s. Originally, the HAFT course was a two-year diploma course run by Sophia Polytechnic. It was one of the first courses of its kind in the city. From the very beginning, the HAFT course was a co-educational one. This two-year diploma course was converted into a three-year degree course that is now affiliated to the University of Mumbai. Besides conducting the two-year diploma course in Hotel Management, the HAFT department also ran a full-time Bakery and Confectionery course and short-term bakery courses etc. before the setting up of the Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College. The ex-students of HAFT are to be found in top managerial positions in various hotels and other fields of the hospitality industry. The names of some of the distinguished ex- students of the department are listed in Annexure V (A). SophiaHAFT enjoys a very high reputation in the Hospitality Industry. Many of our faculty members themselves are alumni of the department and have been on the faculty of the department well before it became a part of the Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College. The faculty members of HAFT have excellent rapport with the Hospitality Industry and we draw on personnel from industry for guest lectures and as resource persons for the conducting of workshops and demonstrations. The department also has a very good record of placements of its graduating students. Currently under the University of Mumbai system via the Garware Institute of Career in Education and Development, the SCM course (which has also been running since the early 1970s) was earlier affiliated to the Directorate of Technical Education (Government of Maharashtra). The course was delinked from the Directorate of Technical Education in 2012 and it ran as an Institute course for two years (2012-2014). Till 2013, the post-graduate course in Social Communications Media (SCM) was only for women. Since 2013 it has become a co-educational course, but to date the majority of the students are 3 women. Alumnae of SCMSophia are also well-placed in the media industry. Some have made a mark in this field (see Annexure V (B)). There are some unique features of this course: firstly it focuses on social / community oriented issues and it aims at training future media personnel who have a strong social awareness and a concern and commitment regarding social issues. Secondly, it covers all the areas of media (print journalism, T.V, film, photography, advertising, media ethics and law, corporate communication, communications research, broadcast journalism etc.) unlike most post-graduate media courses that focus on one or other aspect. Thirdly, it invites professionals from the field of media to engage with the students not just for a one-off guest lecture or workshop, but as visiting or guest faculty. The list of the visiting and guest faculty of the department is impressive for it includes well-known professionals such as P. Sainath, Jerry Pinto, Smruti Koppikar etc. The department is able to draw on the very best from the field of media because of our location, namely in Mumbai and more particularly in South Mumbai (which is a major hub of the media industry). Ramachandra Guha, a historian of note and a former faculty member at the University of California, Berkeley, Yale University, Stanford University, Oslo University, and the Indian Institute of Science, has commended the SCM model of media studies which draws on media personnel in an article, titled ‘Pluralism in the Indian University’, published in the Economic and Political Weekly on February 17, 2007, on page 570. Though it is a small department, the SCM course has been rated highly; for example, in the Outlook rating of professional courses in 2014 it was ranked no. 7 among post-graduate media courses. The curriculum is executed with creativity. Where the syllabus is prescribed by the affiliating university we try to fill in the gaps in the syllabus and to go beyond it with additional workshops and events. But for most of our courses, we are able to design our own curriculum and revise the curriculum with inputs from industry. Our committed faculty ensure that all the teaching-learning processes at Sophia Smt. Manorama Devi Somani College are student-centred. We aim at giving the students the very best of professional skills to equip them for the industry, at the same time we give importance to the holistic, all-round growth of the student and have thus additional activities especially through the Sophia Cooverji Hormusji Bhabha Programme in Ethics and Spirituality. In the HAFT courses, we encourage students to be creative and to experiment in creating new recipes or new ways of food presentation. We also motivate them to do practical research by having theme-based lunches, a Theme Dinner and a grand Annual Exhibition Dinner. The SCM course engages the students in hands-on research in the media field because most of the teaching-learning takes place through practical projects for which research is necessary.

    lives of the women Volume 1 On Stage/ Off Stage Edited by Jerry Pinto Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media Supported by the Laura and Luigi Dallapiccola Foundation Published by the Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media, Sophia Shree B K Somani Memorial Polytechnic, Bhulabhai Desai Road, Mumbai 400 026 All rights reserved Designed by Rohan Gupta be.net/rohangupta Printed by Aniruddh Arts, Mumbai Contents Preface i Acknowledgments iii Shanta Gokhale 1 Nadira Babbar 39 Jhelum Paranjape 67 Dolly Thakore 91 Preface We’ve heard it said that a woman’s work is never done. What they do not say is that women’s lives are also largely unrecorded. Women, and the work they do, slip through memory’s net leaving large gaps in our collective consciousness about challenges faced and mastered, discoveries made and celebrated, collaborations forged and valued. Combating this pervasive amnesia is not an easy task. This book is a beginning in another direction, an attempt to try and construct the professional lives of four of Mumbai’s women (where the discussion has ventured into the personal lives of these women, it has only been in relation to the professional or to their public images). And who better to attempt this construction than young people on the verge of building their own professional lives? In learning about the lives of inspiring professionals, we hoped our students would learn about navigating a world they were about to enter and also perhaps have an opportunity to reflect a little and learn about themselves. So four groups of students of the post-graduate diploma in Social Communications Media, SCMSophia’s class of 2014 set out to choose the women whose lives they wanted to follow and then went out to create stereoscopic views of them.

The criteria are many, such as number of employees, annual sales revenue, value of fixed assets/plant and machinery and the management structure.

We received by return mail, a forty-three page document. It was a summation of an amazing career as an art historian, a social scientist studying the operation of religion in mediaeval India, and an academician who has balanced the religious life with the life of a scholar and of an administrator. The story began 69 years ago when a girl was born to Rosy and P R Verghese. “My mother, Rosy Verghese, was a homemaker; she never went to work. That generation of women hardly ever did. She was a loving and caring person, kind and concerned about the poor. These are the two qualities that I think I gained from her. My father was stricter than my mother, though he was also kind. He was a fair and just person. This showed in his dealings with people; he retired as the Chief Engineer of Western Railway. This meant that he had to deal with the unions at a time when the unions were very powerful. In 1974, there was an All-India Railway strike. It was historic, the only all-India strike ever in the history of the railways. The railways stopped working for an entire month. Even today, with so much air traffic and increased road traffic, if a railway strike were to happen, it would cause a major upheaval in the lives 2 Lives of the Women of the ordinary person.

  • OCTOBER 2019 VOL.74/7 Dear Friends, During the Month of September, We Have Feast of Mother Mary, Thus We Experience Her Accompaniment in Our Life
    Hitguj 1 March 2019 PUNE OCTOBER 2019 VOL.74/7 Dear Friends, During the month of September, we have Feast of Mother Mary, thus we experience Her accompaniment in our life. Hence we come to God to express our gratitude for the gift of Mother Mary as our Mother. To foster the devotion some fast, recite daily Rosary, some make their pilgrimages to various shrines, churches and parishes. Most of our mission stations celebrate their church Feasts -Yatras. It is also harvesting time, so the faithful come to God with their offering to thank God for sustaining them with good harvest and life. The Feast of Mother Mary strengthens the bond of love among the parishioners. The Parish Priest with the collaboration of Sisters, Brothers, parish Council Members and other faithful commit themselves to deepen the love of God through novenas, prayers, rosaries, Bajans and the Eucharistic Celebration. It is time of gratitude to God for His constant accompaniment in our life in providing us, sustaining us with good harvest. God is our source of strength; He blesses and Mother Mary gives us courage to live our life faithfully. We also celebrated Teachers Day in our education institutions, students, parents expressing their gratitude to teachers for empowering them and enhancing their knowledge and skills. For Jesuits, teachers are Formators; they are forming young minds and hearts. A Good Formator is one who takes a hand, opens a mind, and touches a heart to be compassionate to all. Hence, formators need to cultivate the passion of learning through their minds and hearts.

  • Mahesh Elkunchwar's Flower of Blood: a Thematic Study
    MAHESH ELKUNCHWAR’S FLOWER OF BLOOD: A THEMATIC STUDY NEELAM SINGH D. Phil. Research Scholar Department of English and MEL University of Allahabad, Allahabad (Uttar Pradesh) 211002. Dist. S. K. (GJ) INDIA The present paper aims at analysing the translated play entitled Flower of Blood written by Mahesh Elkunchwar. It was originally drafted in Marathi by the title Rakta Pushpa (1972). This play has various themes, but especially it focuses on the relationship between family members, such as mother-daughter, father-daughter, husband-wife, and a boy-girl. And when the death of a family member takes place, it changes lots of things, sometimes due to this mishap family members get more close to each other and sometimes everything shatters. Flower of Blood is a play that shows how a death of the son breaks the mother, sister and father and due to this, the relationship gets complicated between them. The complications become unbearable when an outsider takes the place of that dead son. The point of view of everyone towards the boy is different. The present paper is an attempt to focus on why the intimacy has lost, and bitterness came among the family members, how and why sexuality becomes a major concern between daughter and mother relationship and reaches its peak, the lacking of mutual understanding in marriage, etc. Keywords: Libido, fixation, repression, menstrual cycle, menopause INTRODUCTION An experimental Marathi playwright, Mahesh Elkunchwar is a prolific and reputed name among Marathi dramatists. He is known for his outstanding plays in Marathi and therefore comes his name in the same breath as of Vijay Tendulkar.

  • Treatment of Creation and Destruction in Mahesh Elkunchwar’S Garbo
    TREATMENT OF CREATION AND DESTRUCTION IN MAHESH ELKUNCHWAR’S GARBO NEELAM SINGH D. Phil. Research Scholar Dept. of English and MEL University of Allahabad, Allahabad (UP) INDIA. The present paper aims at analyzing Mahesh Elkunchwar’s play Garbo in terms of creation and destruction. How the destruction of creation and its creator by the destructive force occurred in this play is the major concern of this paper. Garbo – the protagonist of the play has been murdered by Shrimant because she has murdered their hope of life, which was also the creation of the trio- Intuc , Shrimant and Pansy. Garbo, who has a different place in the life of these three male characters; used her for their own sake. When she has decided something for herself she has been brutally murdered as the only refuge has been destructed by the creator herself. She was the medium who can take them out from the insignificant life and can make their life meaningful but at last the negative force gets strong and destruction has won over creation. Introduction An experimental Marathi playwright Mahesh Elkunchwar is a very popular and reputed name among Marathi dramatists. He is known as the best Marathi playwright after Vijay Tendulkar. He has been honored by many prestigious awards in India as well as in abroad. Almost all the major theatre directors like Vijaya Mehta, Shreeram Lagoo, Amol Palekar, Satyadev Dubey, etc. have directed his plays like Holi, Old Stone Mansion, Sonata, An Autobiography, Pond, Apocalypse, etc. His Wada Trilogy is the most famous among all. Elkunchwar has written full length plays filled with all the elements of a good drama.
