Mahaganitham
‘Mahaganitham’ is a sculpture
commemorating the huge Mahagony tree that stood
in front of the Cutcherry Malika. This huge tree,
like other trees on the campus, played a vital role
in the making of the unique heritage of U.C.College.
The tree was
struck by lightning in 2002. The remnants of this great
tree stand as ‘Mahaganitham’ near its original position.
‘Mahaganitham’
represents the historic Mahagony tree and ‘Ganitham’,
Mathematics, the queen of all sciences. Aesthetic concepts
like Golden ratio, Fibonacci series etc. are used in
the design. More than a thousand mathematical entities
and geometrical shapes are engraved in the sculpture.
The five Platonic bodies - tetrahedron, hexahedron,
octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron - are present
in it. Moreover, an attempt has been made to impart
certain ethical messages through different mathematical
models. An old iron bell, used during the early period
of the college, is a part of the sculpture. It reminds
us to make the best use of precious opportunities available
on the campus. The copper and brass frame strengthens
the structure (our relationships too!).
The
work was crafted by the artist Mr. PV. Ramachandran
and the mathematical part was conceived by Dr. Sunny
Kuriakose, Department of Mathematics. |

C.P
Mathew Memorial Block |
Two
major projects, the Golden Jubilee Block and C. P.
Mathew Block have been completed. The new academic
block named C.P. Mathew, Memorial Academic Block was
dedicated on 17. 9 2004. The building took its shape
as an extension of the new Psychology Block built
in 1994. Prof. C. P. Mathew, one of the founders of
the college, was the bursar when the construction
of the New Hostel was started in 1926. The hostel
started functioning in 1928 with 46 students. Mr.
Gopalan Achari was instrumental in planning most of
our old building including the College chapel, and
Biology Block and even Skinner Hostel.‘Each piece
of wood being carved with deep faith in God’, as
Gopalan Achari believes. This block is now a full
fledged wing of the College including the department
of Psychology, Zoology, Womens’ Cell, Computer Centre
and other facilities. |
