Scad College

If you go down to Cheranmadevi in Tirunelveli, you will find Scad College. It is located in the 627414 zip code area of Tamil Nadu. The campus is quite large and we have a lot of students coming from all over the district. It is a bit of a journey for some who take the bus every morning. We have different departments and buildings for various subjects. The atmosphere is generally quiet except for when classes change over. Students walk around the grounds talking or sitting under the trees between their lectures. We have a staff room where we sit and drink tea while grading papers. It is a straightforward place for higher education. We do not have fancy slogans or anything like that. We just focus on the curriculum and making sure the labs are working okay. The weather in Tirunelveli can get quite hot so we are glad for the shade. Living and working here means you get to know the local community well. Many of our students are the first in their families to go to college which is a big deal around here. We just try to keep the place running smoothly and help them get their degrees. There is always some paperwork to do in the office or a meeting about the next semester. It is a plain, practical college for local people who want to study.
