Spiritual Development

 

As an institution run by a religious group, the college gives great importance to spiritual formation and character development. Ultimately a person is what his spiritual and moral values are, and this aspect of your education you will carry with you all your life. Time is allotted each week for value education. Besides, talks are organized on inter-religious topics. The Catholic students have periodic masses, an annual retreat and regular theology classes. Your character is a composite of your values, attitudes, dealing and relations with others, and the way you face the problems and challenges of life. In the college you will acquire a sound value system: honesty, justice, cooperation, fellowship and universal love that embraces all people cutting across barriers of religion or caste or nationality. Essential to any value formation is self-discipline. That is the systematic effort to channelise your impulses, emotions and feelings to their proper end and make them a power for good. Lack of discipline results in confusion and chaos, both internal and external, personal and social, where no true education is possible. The rules of discipline of college will help you to cultivate self-discipline if you interiorise them in right spirit.
