It was founded by Mother Mary Aloysia A.C., who was a recipient of the Kaiser-i-Hind Gold Medal of the First Class in 1929, a national award by the then British Government of India, for her contribution in the field of Women’s Education. St Agnes was reportedly the first women’s college on the west coast of India and the second under private management, in the whole country. It has offered undergraduate education in maths since 1921, and other science degrees since the 1960s. Later, it began admitting boys as well. According to official sources, from 1930 to 1953 the college had hand-written magazines, however in 1954, the first printed version was brought out. It is the early issues of this printed magazine that have been archived in this collection. This collection comprises issues of ‘St Agnes College Magazine’ published at the university from 1954 to 1976. The magazines document prominent events of the year, activities of various departments, as well as articles by the students of the college on topics including science and technology. There are 18 issues of St Agnes College Magazine from this period.Copyright may not have been assigned to Archives, National Centre for Biological Sciences.
