St Aloysius Degree College was established in 2008 primarily for the education of the members of the catholic community though the college admits students from all communities with a preferential option for the poor. When there were several colleges around what was the idea of starting another college? The Archdiocese of Bangalore had its own thinking. Those who established the college believed that the college will be able to contribute to nation-building. One more college and we will be able to do more for those who have less, they thought. The members of the Archdiocese were convinced that they would be able to change and shape the young in ways that they might not imagine. Statistics show that students who have been to colleges are better able to adapt to new situations of life, contribute to social change and get better jobs and make their lives as members of a dynamic human community.
