Principal's Message
On behalf of my sisters, staff and students I welcome you to our website
This Institution is run by the Sisters of Jesus & Mary Congregation
which originated in France in 1818. It was founded by a noble lady St.
Claudine Thevenet. Claudine was moved by the atrocities and miseries of her
time and she was convinced that only knowledge and love of God could
transform the society of her time. Her aim was to make God known and loved
through Christian education of the young, especially the poor. The
Congregation has spread far and wide into all continents. In 1842, the
sisters came to India. Jesus and Mary College was established in 1968.
The College began with the vision of educating young women to help them
bring about development in themselves, their homes, and in their society. We
are committed to give our students a sense of God and to recognise the
divine in themselves, our fellow beings and thus respect the dignity and
uniqueness of each individual. Our endeavour has been to offer an
integrated, all round education, that is intellectual, cultural, social,
physical, aesthetic, moral, spiritual, making every student a compassionate
committed human being.
JMC welcomes students of all religions;We live & work, pray, play and
grow together as a college community. We know that it is possible to work
together for common goals and we are enriched by such an experience. Let us
make a pledge to live in peace, to promote humanity and
brotherhood/sisterhood, to follow the golden rule, "Do unto others what
you would have done unto you." (Bible)
Let us strive to work for change in society and thus translate our vision
into reality.
