John Bosco, SJ Principal 4 Vice Principal’s Message… Loyola College - Mettala, one of two hundred plus colleges and universities worldwide, in the Jesuit tradition of academic excellence and service to others, educates the whole person: caring for the mind, body and spirit of each student. With a primary focus on giving students the best Jesuit education, we infuse Jesuit principles into both the curriculum and the lives of students. The heart of a Jesuit education lies in learning to discern God's will in our lives, and applying that knowledge to all we are and do (Jesuits‟ first Universal Apostolic Preference). We provide opportunities for on-going development of their imagination, conscience and intellect, and encourage and help them recognize new experiences as opportunities for further growth. We want them to see service to others as more self-fulfilling than just success or prosperity. It means in short, that a good life is an other-directed life. In educational terms, the goal of a Jesuit education is the education of men and women for others, men and women who are agents for change. We‟re forming leaders for a more just world. This is what sets Loyola apart from other institutions- a degree with a difference! Annual magazine of ours will speak volumes of our efforts in the wholesome formation of students. God bless our collective efforts! Rev.Fr.Sebastin Thangadurai SJ Vice Principal & Hostel Director. 5 Welcome Honourable Chief Guest Thiru.

Our Chief Guest today, Thiru. U. Sagayam whose office door bears a sign reading "Reject bribes, hold your head high" (in Tamil, Lanjam Thavirtthu, Nenjam Nimirtthu). This motto of him has repeatedly antagonized influential politicians and their supporters in Tamil Nadu. His effort to eliminate corruption has deliberatively pushed him to be transferred for 25 times in the first 27 years of his career. His humanistic perspective has also won him a reputation among the people; in the words of a Daily News and Analysis correspondent, "The common man's collector has become the hero of the local folklore. "In the past, at the time of assembly election 2013, all collectors were transferred except Mr. U. Sahayam I.A.S. and V. Palani Kumar, I.A.S. that shows his authenticity and integrity. He wins the hearts of many men and women by his simple life style. He goes out of his way to help people whenever we approach him. Thereby his notions created many people to adhere him for many inspiring speeches at various occasions for the youth. Though many colleges wanted him to visit their institutions, it‟s our most honourable moment to have amongst these heavy calls. A special note to be mentioned, to all quite know 6 that he is a Jesuit Alumni of Loyola - Chennai. Loyola - Mettala stands tall and proud to have him in our midst. This day is a special day for all of us. We rejoice in the success that we have achieved, and we wish to correct the short comings of the past and try to fare better in the future. Today we look forward with sense of hope towards greater growth and progress. We are proud to acknowledge that we had good results, achievements in academics, research, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities of this year. “In Jesuit education, particular care is given to the development of the imaginative, the affective and the creative dimensions of each student in all courses of study. These dimensions enrich learning and prevent it from being merely intellectual.” (Jesuit General Council doc.)

  • Status of Women in Tamilnadu with Special Reference to Namakkal District
    Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 STATUS OF WOMEN IN TAMILNADU WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO NAMAKKAL DISTRICT Dr.G.Palanivel Assistant Professor Department of History Annamalai University Annamalai agar Deputed to Thiruvalluvar Government Arts College Rasipuram Tamilnadu India Abstract The status of women in India has been subject to many great changes over the past few millennia. From a largely unknown status in ancient times through the low points of the medieval period, to the promotion of equal rights by many reformers, the history of women in India has been eventful. For the purpose of understanding the changing position of women in India, it is essential for us to acquaint ourselves with the status and position of women in the ancient times, from the Vedic period down to the Nineteenth Century AD. A historical study of women in India reveals that there were distinct stages of rise and fall in her status. Empowering women entrepreneurs is essential for achieving the goals of sustainable development and the bottlenecks hindering their growth must be eradicated to entitle full participation in the business. Apart from training programs, Newsletters, mentoring, trade fairs and exhibitions also can be a source for entrepreneurial development. As a result, the desired outcomes of the business are quickly achieved and more of remunerative business opportunities are found. Henceforth, promoting entrepreneurship among women is certainly a short-cut to rapid economic growth and development. Let us try to eliminate all forms of gender discrimination and thus allow ‘women’ to be an entrepreneur at par with men.

Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu is located in the South East of India and lies at a mere 6.7m above mean sea level. Chennai is in a vulnerable location due to storm surges as well as tropical cyclones that bring about heavy rains and yearly floods. The 2004 Tsunami greatly affected the coast, and rapid urbanization, accompanied by the reduction in the natural drain capacity of the ground caused by encroachments on marshes, wetlands and other ecologically sensitive and permeable areas has contributed to repeat flood events in the city. Channelized rivers and canals contaminated through the presence of informal settlements and garbage has exasperated the situation. Natural and man-made water infrastructures that include, monsoon water harvesting and storage systems such as the Temple tanks and reservoirs have been polluted, and have fallen into disuse.

  • A GIS Based Study on Land Evaluation in Rasipuram Block, Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu
    ISSN(Online) : 2319-8753 ISSN (Print) : 2347-6710 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology (An ISO 3297: 2007 Certified Organization) Vol. 5, Issue 9, September 2016 A GIS Based Study on Land Evaluation in Rasipuram Block, Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu V. Emayavaramban1 Associate Professor, Department of Geography, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India.1 ABSTRACT: The main objective of this study is to identify an appropriate land suitable for cultivation in a scientific land evaluation manner. This kind of analysis gives a proper idea for the farmers to do the land management practices and helps to increase land productivity. A GIS based multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) is used to achieve this objective to assess the suitable area for the cultivation of crops. Overlay analysis has generally taken the form of weighted overlay depending on our perspective. The main objective of weighted overlay is to calculate a new set of values for the complete coverage based on a combination of input values. This operation processes the complete data sets, so boundaries from all inputs layers will be retained. The study area taken for this study is Rasipuram block of Namakkal District. The District lies in the interior part of Tamil Nadu. The layer used in decision making system is soil parameters such as texture, production potential and climatic parameters such as rainfall, physical parameters such as drainage density, slope and geomorphology. All these layers are ranked properly based on the expert advice and literature then suitable weights are assigned to do the overlay analysis method to delineate suitability classes.
