Education is every child's right, and constantly working to fulfil this notion is Sri Kaliswari College, Sivakasi. Located in the rural area, the students' population at Kaliswari College mainly hails from socially disadvantaged and economically weaker sections of the society. Most of them are first generation learners who can get entitled to dignified survival only through education, employment and entrepreneurship. So, the college determinedly aims at facilitating an integral, inclusive and humane development of the nation by offering quality higher education to rural students' community.
Sri Kaliswari Trust, comprising a team of magnificent philanthropists endowed with wisdom and foresight, embarked on launching an ideal College of Arts and Science in 2000 A.D. with a vision to impart value-based higher education to the student community and to mold them to be fit for the next millennium. Addressing this concern, the college has stated its vision as 'To impart quality higher education to produce highly talented youth capable of developing the nation'.
"At Sri Kaliswari College, we are focusing on the empowerment of socially and economically backward rural students by appointing qualified, skilled and experienced faculty members by adopting various teaching pedagogies to identify and develop the innate skills of the students. By means of conducting various curricular and co-curricular programmes, the students are exposed to real life situations which make them ready to face the same, in addition to securing high marks. The present day students are encountered with more number of personal as well as psychological problems. It leads to poor concentration on studies. So, the teachers of Sri Kaliswari College are acting as a counsellor to address the problems of the students and make them feel free and better," says A. P. Selvarajan, Secretary, Sri Kaliswari College, Sivakasi.
