FOUNDER OF COLLEGE
DR. Meena Ramaswamy, PH.D., MBA, MMM, PGDEIM [Halifax, Canada]
The specialty of Ottapalam and surrounding areas include scenic hills, forests, country-style housing, lush green paddy fields and natural beauty but it was untouched by positives of the modern-day technological and industrial advancements. As almost majority of the residents were in the lower middle class category and in the minority category, they were not able to get quality learning modules from nearby, as it was not affordable for them. The location was very far from the nearby education hubs like Coimbatore, Kochi and Kozhikode. This made Meena Ramaswamy set her vision to give quality education by blending technology while imparting education. She decided to resign her well settled career of Banglore and started a college in a rented building at Kulappuly. She herself, first rank holder in MBA marketing management, hired few well qualified faculties and started the journey with 8 students. She promised students an ambience of regular colleges with art fests and elections. She hired professionally qualified people who were interested in settling in the rural outskirts and ready to share their knowledge to the rural youth. Later, the college shifted to Manissery Campus. The journey continues, her team instils in students a zest for learning and motivates original thought and the ability to see things from multiple perspectives. She strongly believes in the success mantra that “The bond that students and faculty members share is one of the greatest assets of the college”. Discussions and activities within and outside the classroom are dynamic, dyadic, dialogic and collaborative. The emphasis is on a liberating pedagogy that can shatter myths, rescue imagination, develop critical thinking and initiate change
