St. Xavier College is the first Catholic college in Senapati District and was inaugurated on 30th January, 2019. It gives wings to the educational dreams of the youth. The blend of excellence and innovation will define the college. The entire effort of St. Xavier College is to ignite the young minds and take them beyond the syllabus and mere examinations. The motto of the college is EDUCATION FOR SERVICE. In order to achieve the objectives and the smooth functioning of the institution a set of rules are enforced w.e.f. 15th August, 2019.

Every Xavierian is perceived as a person endowed with a unique character and personality which must be molded and perfected. The college with its various activities (co-curricular and extracurricular) help the students to achieve this goal and every student is expected to render his/her full cooperation in this endeavor. He/she is expected always to uphold the values and ideals of the institution. In particular:

• He/she should apply himself/herself to regular and systematic study.
• He/she is to be truthful in his/ her words and deeds, courteous and respectful towards fellow-students, lecturers and those in authorities.
• His /her life should be marked out by purity of life, quest for excellence, love of hard work, spirit of unselfish service, and devotion to God and one’s country.
• He/she should maintain high standard of behavior at all times and in all places.

The task of education necessarily calls for structures, which are essential for maintaining discipline in the individuals’ life as well as in the campus. Discipline must be seen as part of the educational process and not perceived as something negative. It helps the students to develop self-discipline, which is absolutely essential for a successful life. Therefore, St. Xavier College requires from all its students a total adherence to all the rules and regulations of the college, which are intended for the benefit of the individual students as well as the institution. By taking admission in the St. Xavier College, every student agrees to abide by the following rules and regulations and any other rules that may be framed in the future for the effective fulfillment of the mission and objectives of the college. Those who are admitted to the college should feel proud to be a member of the college. The future of the college depends very much on the discipline, general behavior and performance of the students themselves.

VISION, MISSION AND GOALS OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION:

(From the National Policy on Catholic Education, 2007)

God envisions the well-being of the whole of creation and ensures ongoing healing, wholeness and transformation of our

unjust and fragmented world through human interventions. The Mission of Jesus Christ is to restore the integrity of God's original creation; human, material and spiritual thus build the Kingdom of God on earth.

Our vision is the same as the vision of Jesus- that all may have life and have it in abundance.

Education, by its very nature is a transformative process, namely, changing

Human persons, and through them, society and its structures. This activity of transformation is a spiritual, humanizing and liberating activity and constitutes the core mission of education. In the knowledge society that is emerging, 'quality education' serves as the gateway to the socio-cultural and economic development of persons and of the country.

      Our  Mission  in  Education  is     therefore  to  provide:

• An education of equality and relevance to all, and in particular, to the
• Marginalized sections of the society.
• An education that frees persons from the social conditioning ( such as caste, class, gender and other culture- linked prejudices) which prevents them from living as free persons; and which, instead, enables them to see life as avocation and as a gift, and which enables them to make free and considered choices in the key areas that affect their personal lives, communities and society.
•  An Education that leads the young into the sacred space of the human person and of every person, making them aware of the inalienable human rights of every individual and group. This helps to foster pluralism, cultural and religious diversity, individual and collective freedoms and respect for and appreciation of differences, in the face of a globalized world that aggressively pushes towards economic and cultural uniformity.
• An Education that humanizes and contextualizes, by assisting the students to raise essential questions concerning the meaning of life and of their role in society, enabling them to become conscious of their responsibility to contribute to evolving a borderless society and to promoting the common good.
• An Education that enables the youths to understand the implications of economic policies and structures, political decisions and the media, that play a critical role in shaping people's lives especially those of the poor, and the Social responsibility of citizens as individuals and as a groups to engage in proactive measures to bring both transparency and accountability.
• An Education that energizes the young to take up the task of contributing to Nation-building, so as to evolve a new inclusive Indian Society, an India of their dreams, which they can own with pride and joy.
• An Education that thus forms the young to evolve as men and women of character, competence, conscience, compassion and commitment, who will then contribute to the evolution of a counter-culture to the present ruthlessly competitive model, by promoting collaboration and cooperation for the growth of all, in a climate of mutual trust and sharing; and to the shockingly corrupt society, by fostering uprightness in public life.
• An Education which nurtures an encounter with God as a personal event and a free response to the call to faith and which nurtures a life of meaning, purpose and personalized values, including appreciation of other faiths.
