ABOUT CIC-THE MANAGEMENT OF ST.JUSTIN’S

The congregation of the Immaculate Conception (CIC) had its inception at Panchampatti at the end of the 19th century. Rev. Fr. Julius Larmey, S.J., Rev.Fr. Augustine Pereira and Rev. Fr. Eugene Nespoulous, S.J. are honoured as the founders of the congregation. On account of the motivation given by these holy men, four dedicated women entered into a hut with a single purpose and started their community life on 2nd February 1899. The Congregation grew step by step in to a big tree in length and breadth of the Indian sub-continent, and other countries – Zambia, South Africa, Italy and Sri Lanka. In order to secure more efficient administration, the Congregation was divided in to 3 Regions namely Madurai, Paramakudi and Palayamkottai on 25th March 1984 and then to 3 provinces since 1997. It celebrated its Platinum Jubilee on 7th and 8th May 1984 and it was promoted to the ‘Pontifical Status’ by His Holiness Pope John Paul II on 19th Jan, 1993.

The mission of the Congregation is to provide quality Education to students and women hailing from the backward districts of south Tamil Nadu and the vision is to strive for empowerment of women through gender-disparity, education, vocational training, spiritual and personality development and entrepreneurship. The College emblem portrays a lamp stand in the India Map lit by a Lady. The map symbolically conveys the service rendered to the country. The lit lamp signifies the dispelling of dark ignorance among the masses. The hand that sets light to the lamp connotes the women student teachers who are moulded to serve the country. The glowing light metaphorically stands for God, as student teachers are trained to serve with moral and spiritual vitality.
