Following this, Lord Elphinstone evolved a plan for the establishment of a Central Collegiate Institution or an ‘University'. This University had twin Departments (1) High School for the cultivation of English literature, regional language, philosophy and science, (2) College for providing instruction in the higher branches of literature, philosophy and science. The University Board was constituted in January 1840 with Mr. George Norton as its President. This was the precursor of the present Presidency College, Chennai. However, a systematic educational policy for India was formulated only after 14 years by the historic dispatch of 1854 (Sir Charles Wood's Education Dispatch), which pointed out the rationale for “Creating a properly articulated system of education from the primary school to the University”. The Dispatch recommended the establishment in the Universities of Professorships “For the purposes of the delivery of lectures in various branches of learning including vernacular as well as classical languages”. As a sequel, the University of Madras, organized on the model of London University, was incorporated on 5 th September 1857 by an Act of the Legislative Council of India. As such, the University of Madras is one of the three post Universities of modern and has been serving the cause of higher education in India since its inception. It is now the mother and grandmother of various universities of South India. PUBLICATIONS DIVISION Apart from teaching and research activities, the University started publishing activities around 1900. Among its noteworthy early publications are: Pope's English translation of The Thiruvasagam (1900), K.V. Rangaswami Aiyangar's Considerations on Some Aspects of Ancient Indian Polity (1916, 1920, 1935), K.N. Sivaraja Pillai's Agestiya in Tamil Land (1927), C. Achyuta Menon's edited works Kuchela Vritham and Krishna Vilasam (1929), S.S. Surynarayana Sastri's translated (into English) and edited work of Appayya Dikshita's Sivadvaida- Nirmaya (1929). The Publications Division continues to be a hallmark of the University of Madras, publishing scholarly works of its faculty, endowment lectures of eminent invited scholars, translations, dictionaries, journals, syllabi, etc., in nine languages in various disciplines.
