the centenary celebrations
(The College is deeply grateful to its numerous ex.members whose active participa.
tion contributed so much to the success of the Centenary Celebrations. The
years of their actual membership of the College are indicated here by the
dates within brackets after the names. Present members are indicated by
their departments or classes.]
A. The Preparations
Early in 1954, a College Committee for the Centenary Celebrations was set
up consisting of the following members of the Teaching Staff :—
Principal Jalischandra Sengupta, president,

Professor Susobhanchandra Sarkar (History),
Dr. Subodhchandra Sengupta (English),
Dr. Sachchidananda Bandopadhyay (Physiology),
Dr. Pratulchandra Rakshit (Chemistry),
Professor Santoshkumar Ray (Geology),
Dr. Sibatosh Mukhopadhyay (Zoology),
Dr. Sarojbandhu Sanyal (Physics).
The following members were later co-opted to the Committee :—

Professor Upend ranath Ghoshal (Economics),
Professor Janardan Chakrabarti (Bengali),
Professor Amiyakumar Majumdar (Philosophy),
Dr. Jitendrakumar Chaudhuri (Botany).
The College Committee thus constituted held two formal meetings on January 18
and March 5). 1954. A draft scheme for the Celebrations was prepared which
included the publication of a Centenary Volume and the second part of die Students’
Register to cover the period from 1924 to 1954 (the first part already published in
1927 came down to 1924). A tentative budget for the Celebrations was prepared
and the Government was approached for a grant in thia connection. It was
suggested to the authorities that the Centenary Year would be the appropriate time
for the construction of the College Assembly Hall the want of which has been so
keenly felt for the last forty years. It was also decided to request President Rajendra
Prasad, distinguished ex-student of the College, to preside over the Celebrations.
The Government of West Bengal kindly agreed to bear the cost of the projected
Centenajy' Volume and the Register as its contribution towards the expenses of the
Celebrations. It was decided that the members of the College, past and present,
and its friends should be approached for contributions to meet the other items of
expenditure.. A listof those who generously responded to the appeal will be found
in later pages.
The compilation of the Centenary Volume was entrusted to Dr. Subodhchandra

Sengupta and Professor Susobhanchandra Sarkar who were later joined by Professor
Taraknalh Sen of the English Department. The work on the Register already
started by the Alumni Association was continued by many members of the Staff.

In the middle of the year 1954, the Alumni Association associated itself with
the preparations for the Centenary and set up a Centenary Commttee. This
Committee and the earlier College Committee were now fused into a single joint
body which functioned henceforth as the Joint Centenary Committee. The repre

acted as its Chairman. Principal Sengupta was the Secretary. The Joint Committee
held three formal meetings on August 3 and September 4, 1954, and on February ID
1955.
The Joint Committee approved the tentative programme of the Celebrations
and invited contributions from the past and present members of the Coltene and
its well-wishers. An appeal was issued under the signature of Sri AtulcRandr
*
Gupta (1901-06), the Pre® dent of the Alumni Association, and of Principal Sengupta.
Sri Saihalkumar Gupta and Professor Susobhanchandra Sarkar were elected Joint
Treasurers to the Presidency College Centenary Fund.
The Governing Body of the College fully associated itself with the preparations
conducted by the Joint Committee. The collection of funds was carried on by
special sub-committees from time to lime and by a number of volunteer workers.
A Press Conference was called ou April 16, 1955, when the arrangements were
discussed among others by Sri Hemendraprasad Ghosh (1893-99), Sn Kaliprasad
Kbaitan (1905-11), Sri Chapalakanta Bhattacharya (1917-21), and Sri Saihalkumar
Gupta. A second Press Conference was held on May 28 when the details of the
Programme were released to the newspapers. The preparations and the Centenary
Celebrations were given full publicity by the Press, and nearly every newspaper
carried articles, notes and reports on the Centenary.
As the time fixed for the Celebrations approached, the Joint Committee virtually
resolved itself into a Steering Committee
** reinforced by advisors including amongst
others Sri Jatindramoban Majumdar (1915-21) and Sri Somendrachandra Nandi
(1946-50.) The Steering Committee in its turn entrusted the various arrangements
to numerous sub-committees and working groups. An incomplete list of the main
workers in the different branches of activity fa given here.

322 CENTENARY RECORD
The number of the College volunteers was so large that a mention of individual
names is not practicable here. Jt must however be put on record that the smooth
working of al! the arrangements was mainly due to their cheerful devotion, unsparing
labour, and commendable discipline.
B. The Celebrations
On the eve of the Centenary Celebrations, the Asiatic Society of Bengal, the
pioneer of modem cultural institutions in the country and ancient in years, very
courteously held a Symposium in honour of i he event. The meeting was held in
the Society's rooms on Tuesday, June 14, at 5-30 p.m. The proceedings were opened
by Sri Nirnudchandra Bhattacharya (in the College from 1914 to 1920) and the
chair was taken by Dr. Upendranath Ghosal (1903-06 ; on the College Staff between
1909 and 1940). Dr. Rnmeschandra Majumdar (1907-11) spoke on the the origins
and history of the Hindu College and Professor Susobhanchandra Sarkar reviewed
the development and activities of the Presidency College itself.
June 15.
The actual Centenary Celebrations commenced with the early morning of Wednes
day, June 15, 1955.
At 7-30 a.m., many past and present members of the College assembled in front
of the newly-erected Pandal in the College grounds. The proceedings were opened
by the chanting of Vedic hymns by Dr. Gaurinath Sastri (1925-31 ; on the Staff
between 1936 and 1950) followed by the ceremonial song SttupocA-cAtadAvain
sung in chorus by some present students. Principal Jatischandra Sengupta then
welcomed the gathering :—

The College Flag in blue with a golden pradip emblem was then unfurled
and hoisted to the top of the Pandal at its main entrance by Sri Sureschandra Sinha
(1883-88), one of the senior most ex-students of the College. He addressed a few
words also to the assembly. Bandt Matarant and the National Anthem v»we
then sung by the choir.
About one thousand members of the College, past and present, arranged in
order of seniority, next marched past the flag-staff in salutation of the Flag
while tbe choir sang •rifflC t* l The March Past was a very
solemn and moving ceremony. In the case of more than one family, three genera
tions participated in the march, while the sprinkling of 19th century graduates present
on tbe occasion lent dignity to tbe gathering.
On the same evening, the central ceremony in the Celebrations, the Centenary
Meeting, was held tn the spacious Pandal. The gathering was most impressive,
the large Pandal being filled to capacity. There was also a big overflow and the
entire lawn was studded over with groups who could follow tbe proceedings with
ease, thanks to the excellent microphone arrangements. The Pandal seated
over 3,000 ; on the Platform were more than a hundred additional seats allotted
to the speakers, the past Principals, the members of the Governing Body, the repre
sentatives of the Universities, other academic institutions, the state Government
and the City, and the senior graduates of the College up to the time of President
Rajendra Prasad. At the back of the Platform was the illuminated replica of a Bot

Tree in commemoration of the prophetic vision of Secretary Baidyanath Mukhopad-

dhyay who on January 21, 1817, said that the academy just starting would grow
someday like the largest of trees known in this country, “cooling and refreshing
all those who came under its shade.11 From the branches of the symbolic tree,
lighted-up discs like fruits indicated the important landmarks in tbe history of the
College.
The Centenary Meeting was presided over by the first President of the Indian
Republic, distinguished ex-student of the College. Dr. Rajendra Prasad came
to the city for two days only, interrupting his official programme already arranged,
just for the sake of visiting his ofma mater on this memorable occasion.
The meeting began at 6 p.m., after the ceremonial entry of President Prasad.
Vedic hymns were chanted by Dr. Gaurinath Sastri followed by the song SanâeA
ehhadJimm. The inaugural address was then delivered by Acharya Jadunath
Sarkar (student of the College, 1889-92 ; member of the Staff between 1898 and
1901)
"The first and most pressing question today is how to maintain the proper
standard in our teaching and examinations. Gresham’s Law is operating in the
academic world, bad coins are driving good coins out of the market, in the name
of local autonomy Free India is being covered with mushroom universities—without
money, without men, and without that wide catholicity of mind which is the root
meaning of the word University.
“1b the name of democracy these universities arc running a race for cheapening
degrees. At the same time in a narrow parochial spirit they are engaging only local
men as teachers, and not the ablest available for the pay. The university of one
town declares on its selection board that it will appoint only its own alumni and not
any graduate of a sister university, in the same province and speaking the same
tongue but situated in another town. The teachers chosen on this principle will
produce the next generation of teachers in such a university, and then the Biblical
proverb would be fulfilled, “If the blind lead the blind, both shall Call into the
ditch”,
“In the past century. Presidency College had often fought a lone battle by tbe
precept of its teachers and the example of its students, in defence of tbe highest
academic standards. In the coming century they cannot escape that very unpopu
lar duty, if India is not to lapse into mediaeval darkness.
“The highest educational standard at home is even more necessary today than
it was under the British rule. The paramount duty ot a free country u no doubt
national defence. But next to it is self-sufficiency in knowledge and science. India
cannot afford to remain for ever an intellectual pariah, a beggar for crumbs at tbe
doors of Oxford or Cambridge, Paris or Vienna. She must create within herself
a source of the highest original research and assume her rightful place as the School
of Asia, even as Pericleian Athens made herself the School of Hellas.
“Six thousand Indian students go abroad in one year and spend three and a half
crores of Indian money outside. Not all of them, not even one-tenth of them
return with credit. Why did we not supply them, within our land, with what they
were seeking ?
“Our next problem is how to justify our existence in this changing world. There
is no denying the fact that the Presidency College has so long been an aristocracy,
a corps tTellte, in the academic world ; its very title of the premier college of Bengal
proclaims it. But in this democratic age an aristocracy will become increasingly
subject to envy and criticism.

CBLE BRATIONS 325
’•Au aristocracy of inherited statu

* or wealth has no escape from such attacks.
But if we can still maintain our primacy by our deeds, if we can prove ourselves
an aristocracy of talent, in the original Greek sense of the word as the best men,
then we shall be able to meet the challenge. This is the inescapable test of our
teachers and students in the generation rising up before me. We did it in the past.
Shall we lack the spirit to do it in the future ?
“They say in England that a boat race is won by a strong pull, a long pull, and a
pull all together—the third being the most effective tactics. This brings me to the
foremost need of the Presidency College today. A college, as its etymology shows
it, is a body of men gathered together for the advancement of learning. But how
can you reach this end if your teachers live in bouses dispersed all over Calcutta
and Howrah, apart from one another and from their students ?
“Out of your 1 JOO students only ISO have a hostel to congregate in. Even that
Eden Hindu Hostel is not an Oxford HaU ; it has no resident-teacher, only a
lecturer who acts as a household manager, just as an office clerk did in my time.
The tutors and boys meet for only 180 days in the year and that too for not more
than three hours a day. Hostels for at least 1,000 of our students are necessary,
but an equal priority should be given to 25 bouses for the professors within walking
distance of their pupils' residences.
“Will such a dream be realized in an academic colony somewhere east of the

Scald&h-Ballygungc railway line, but within an hour's walk from the old College
and its laboratories ? What Minister will shoulder this burden ? But if Presidency
College is ever to rise to its supreme destiny, the task must be shouldered. It is
not impossible. I have seen the Ratnkrishna Mission Students’ Home in Bel-
gharia rising out of a wilderness. Such a thing alone can create the indispensable,
framework of an Oxford in Bengal. Will it come ? And when T'
The inaugural address was followed by the speech of the Principal of the College,
Dr. Jttischandra Sengupta :—
Rashtrapati Dr. Rajendra Prasad, Rajyapal Dr. Harbndra Coomar Mooker-

jee, Acuarya Dr. Jadunath Sarkar, Members of thb Collbqb - past and
present. Ladies and Gentlemen,
“It is a great thing for a man-made institution to weather the storms of a hundred
years and survive ; greater still, when it not only survives but grows in course of
hundred yean to a magnitude and significance far beyond any at the start Presi
dency College, which is a century old in its present name but actually 138 yean
old as an institution, had,,when we think of it now, such a small beginning. It
(lAned as the Hindu College on the 20th January, 1817, with only twenty atiidents
on its rolls in a rented bouse on Upper Chitport Road. Think of thaL humble
beginning, and think of Presidency College as it is now—an institution that might
well have been a university—the nursery of the intellect of Bengal, and you are
inevitably reminded of the prophecy made no the day following the foundation of
the Hindu College by its ’Native Secretary', as be was called, Buddinath Mukherjee,
that “the school, which yet was but a seedling, would many yean hence resemble
the banyan tree, which when fully grown was the largest of trees in India, cooling
and refreshing ail those who came under its shade”. That prophecy has fulfilled
itself to the letter in the last 138 years.
“Let us, on an occasion like this, remember and salute those early pioneers
associated with the foundation of the Hindu College and those responsible for its
subsequent conversion into Presidency College. Among the founders of the Hindu
College were David Hare, Raja Rammohan Ray, Maharaja Tejchandra Bahadur
of Burd wan, Gopeemohan Tagore, Buddinath Mukherjee, Gopeemohan Deb,
Joykrishna Sinha, Radbamadlub Banerji, Ganganarayau Da ,
* Sir Edward Hyde

sEt,
* Joseph Barretto ; among the benefactors, whose munificence made the exis
tence and continuance of the institution possible, were besides the Maharaja of
Burdwan and Gopeemohan Tagore just named, Raja Buddinatb Roy, Harinatb
Roy, and Kalishankar Ghosal. It is impossible to overestimate the importance
sjf their work. The Hindu College was the first institution in India to impart western
education on an organised scale, if in India today we are what and where we are
largely because of western education, these founders and benefactors of the Hindu
College must be placed among the makers of modern India. One's admiration
for th-eir work becomes all the greater when one remembers the forces they were
up against. Thus, Raja Rammohan Ray, though in full sympathy with the Hindu
College scheme, had to refrain from appearing publicly in its support for fear of
“aJarnung the prejudices of his orthodox countrymen and thus marring the whole
cause”. He did alarm, nonetheless. A Bengali lampoon of the time speaks of the
Brahmin of Khanakul {the Raja was born near this place) baring founded a school
that bids fair to cut at the roots of caste 1 The unknown writer was wiser than he
knew.
"Again, when in 1827 the Government granted the Hindu College accommod
ation iti the two wings of the newly built building for the Sanskrit College, special
arrangements had to be made to prevent contact between the scholars of the two insti
tutions, the orthodox and the heterodox, by means of a wall with iron rails on top
separating either wing from the centra) block which housed the Sanskrit College I
Ideas, however, cannot be held back by barriers, and those that the Hindu College
stood for spread across walls and rails and swiftly conquered the entire country.
"If any one among the founders of the Hindu College has to be singled out foe
particular mention, it is Darid Hare. It was this great-hearted Scotch watch
maker, who made Calcutta his home and came to love tbe country and its people
as his own, who first mooted the idea of an advanced English school for the city,
and the scheme be drew up led to the foundation of the Hindu College. If, then,
David Hare was the real founder of Hindu College, Dr. F. J. Mouat and Rasamoy
Datta might claim the same distinction in relation to Presidency College. The
birth of Presidency College was, curiously enough, an offshoot of a brush that occur
red in 1852 between the students of the Calcutta Madrassah and their Principal, Dr.
SprengeT. Jt is remarkable what leads to what in human affairs. Dr. F. J. Mouat,
then Secretary to the Council of Education (forerunner of the Directorate of Public
Instruction of today), whose name, incidentally, is commemorated in the Mouat
Medal still awarded by the Calcutta University, was appointed to hold an enquiry.
Io bis report he stressed the desirability of a general 'Metropolitan College', open
to all classes and creeds, unlike the sectarian Madrassah and Hindu College. The
establishment of a new general college, added Dr. Mouat, would however stifle
the Hindu College, and it was better that the Hindu College itself should be changed
into a public institution open to all. The Government accepted Dr. Mouat'i
suggestion and formally proposed the transformation of tbe Senior Department
of the Hindu College into a full-fledged Government institution open to all and
re-named ’the Presidency College', “in order to distinguish it by name from all
merely local and private institutions, and in order to give it an official character”.
If tbe initial move in the matter came from Dr. Mouat, the actual change-over
owed not a little to Rasamoy Datta. This ‘‘aide and enlightened gentleman", as
Dr. Mouat describes him, was Honorary Secretary to the Hindu College from 1841
to 1854 ; later he became a member of the Council of Education and a Judge of the
Calcutta Small Cause Court (the first Indian to be appointed a Judge of that Court).
It was largely due to his enthusiastic support of the Government proposals that the
management of tbe Hindu College were persuaded to hand over the institution to
the Government, despite initial reluctance on their part. Along with the founders
and benefactors of the Hindu College, these two gentlemen. Dr. F. J. Mouat and
Rasamoy Datta, have a place of their own in the history of education in modem
India.

"Looking down the vista of a century, one watches the lorg and glorious history
of Presidency College pass in a panorama before one’s eyes—die Senior Department
of the Hindu College closing down on the 15th April, 1854, and re-opening infor
mally as the Presidency College on the 15th June, 1854 ; tbe change formalised,
on receipt of sanction from the Court of Directors of the East India Company, on
tbe J Sth June, 1855 ; the first two graduates passing out in 1858, one of them being
no less a figure than Bankirn Chandra Chattedi 1 (he construction of the present
Main Building al the College between 1872 and 1874 ; the gift of the turret clock
by Nafarchandra Pal Chowdhuri shortly after; tbe Eden Hindu Hostel, built
earlier out of public subscription, taken over by the Government in 1895 ; tbe
beginnings of modern scientific research in India in the laboratories of the College

to work in a healthier atmosphere, The yean since 1947 have been marked by
structural additions to the Baker Laboratories and the opening of new departments
of study. The number of students on the rolls on the 15th June, 1854. was 101 ;
in this centenary year, it is 1,219.
"But 1 have not touched yet on the most remarkable feature of this long and
gtorioua history of the College. Every year of this century of her existence Presidency
College, like its predecessor, the Hindu College, has sent out men of sterling worth
and distinction io the various walks of Indian life—the arts and the sciences, law,
politics and administration, education and social service. They are so many, these
distinguished alumni of Presidency College, that their names alone would fill a large
volume. That fact alone is a measure of the significance of the College in the intel
lectual history of modern India. Not many colleges in the world can boast of
having contributed so many names to a country’s scroll of honour.
"One particular feature of the history of Presidency College has gone on repeating
itself throughout the century under review. The growth of the College has always
outrun the available accommodation. This was so at the beginning ; this is so at
the present moment Starting where the Hindu College had been, in the two wings
of the Sanskrit College building, Presidency College prescctly outgrew that accom
modation, and the problem of space was a real headache for the authorities of the
day till die present Main Building of the College was put up in 1874 By the end of
the century the College had outgrown even its new edifice, thanks to the rapid expan
sion of its science departments. By 1907, white H. R. fames was Principal of the
College, it was felt that the problem of accommodation cosld no longer be ignored,
and a comprehensive plan for all-round expansion of the College was drawn up
‘Incidentally, our dutmguhbed Preudmt of to-day was elected Secretary to tbe first Colfc(c
Union.

and formally approved in a conference presided over by the then Lieutenant-Gover

nor of Bengal. Al a result the Baker Laboratories were put up in 1913. Then
came the first World War and the remainder of the 1907 plan went by the board.
Thanks to a further push given by Principal H. E. Stapleton, the new Astronomical
Observatory was built and the boundaries of the College campus were extended
during 1927-30. Yet to this day many parts of the 1907 plan remain unrealised—
for example, an Assembly Hall, the lack of which is poignantly felt every time some
meeting or function is held at the College (the centenary functions, tor instance,
have to be held in a specially erected ponded).
“Since 1913 the College has been expanding in many directions, especially in its
science departments, with no corresponding increase in available accommodation.
New subjects have been taken on (e.g., Statistics, Geography, Zoology); depart
ments have multiplied ; the College library has grown steadily till it has reached a
total of more than 85,000 volumes of books and periodicals ; teaching and adminis
trative staff has increased ; so has the number of students on the rolls (and for the
last ten years the College has been admitting women students to its degree classes).
Moreover, for the last five years, while Presidency College students have been
attending their Sanskrit and Pali classes at Sanskrit College, Sanskrit College students
have been attending their classes in all other Arts subjects at Presidency College.
All these have made heavy demands on the existing accommodation with the result
that all departments of the College are badly cramped for space, the position being
the worst in the science departments which have to take up, io addition to normal
leaching and research work, various research schemes sponsored by the State
Government and different bodies under the Central Government. Even the recent
structural additions to the Baker Laboratories and the removal of the Indian Statisti
cal Institute to its own building elsewhere have hardly improved matters. History
has repeated itself; “more space’’ is once again the cry of the hour.
“In the last few years we felt that unless this pressing problem of accommodation
was tackled in right earnest, the activities of the College in its various departments
might come to a dead end, The 1907 example was before os, and it was time, we
felt, that another comprehensive plan for all-round expansion of (he College was
drawn up and put into effect. We did draw up such a plan and submit it to the
Government in 1953. Nothing yet has been heard in the matter from the authorities.
“I should be failing in my duty to my College if I did not mention one other matter.
A very high destiny was envisaged for this institution in the original Government
plan for the transformation of the Senior Department of the Hindu College into the
Presidency College. The Government Note on the subject, dated 2lst October, 1853,
very clearly envisaged the future of Presidency College as the nucleus of a university.
Most unfortunately, the College was prevented from fulfilling that high destiny
appointed for bet by being successively shorn of her Law, Engineering and Commerce
Departments and finally of her Post-Graduate classes. The new University Act
passed in 1951 contains a provision for constituent colleges, i.c., colleges capable
of teaching upto the post-graduate stage, and Presidency College has been declared
one such. But nothing, unfortunately, has yet been done to implement the declara
tion. On this solemn centenary day, which necessarily reminds us of all that the
country owes to Presidency College and of whBt she expects of us in return, here
are two demands we make on our national government; first, that the plan we
submitted tn 1953 for all-round expansion of the College be accepted and put into
effect with the least possible delay ; second, that immediate steps be taken towards
resumption of post-graduate teaching at Presidency College. Our College must
in future, as I visualise it, develop into a research institution in Arts and Science
subjects ; the revival of post-graduate teaching is a necessary stage in that develop-
nent.
*Turning to the centenary celebrations which start today, I must offer may heart
felt thanks to all those members of the College, past and present, whose unwearied

CE1BBRATONS 329
labours and enthusiastic co-operation have made the celebrations possible. The
Presidency College Alumni Association, now in the fifth year of an extremely useful
existence, have rendered yeoman’s service in the matter, Members of the various
committees that have been set up in connexion with the centenary celebrations have
all worked hard in the cause. In planning for the celebrations we have stuck to the
original date, the 1 Sth of June, when the Senior Department of Hindu College re
opened as Presidency College ; though some were in favour of holding the celebra
tions in winter because of the more favourable weather. All those who have worked
hard for the success of the celebrations have done so cheerfully in extremely trying
weather.
’'Grate ful thanks are also due to those who have helped us with loans of pictures,
portraits, blocks and documents in connexion with the centenary or by permitting
photographs to be taken of portraits, etc., tn their charge or possession. A special
word of thanks is due to the Press for the excellent co-operation wc have been receiving
from them all along. Our thanks are also due to the officers of the West
Bengal Government Press for the interest they have been taking in all printing work
in connexion with the centenary. Of the two volumes planned for as part of the
centenary programme, viz., the Centenary Volume and the second volume of the
Register of Ex-students, the first is in the press. This is being edited by Dr. S. C.
Sen Gupta, Professor S. C. Sarkar and Professor T. N. Sen, and will contain the
history of the College, an account of its activities is the last hundred years, and a
targe number of plates relating io the post history of the College ; we hope to be
able to publish it shortly. As for the second volume of the Register of Ex-students,
which will contain the records of ex-students after 1925 (at which year the first
volume, published in 1927, left off), it will take some more time to bring it out, for
not all ex-students have yet responded to our appeal for information. As already
arranged, copies of the two volumes, when published, will be aent free to those
who have contributed Rs. 25 or more to the centenary funds.
“’It is certainly a most noteworthy fact that all the funds needed for the centenary
celebrations have been subscribed by members of the College, past and present.
The celebrations win cost us Rs. 20,000 approximately. The bulk of this amount
has been contributed by old students, who have thus shown how dearly they still
love their alma mater. Our most grateful thanks ate due to all donors. We hope
to be left with a surplus after meeting all the expenses of the celebrations, with which
we have planned to endow a number of Centenary Scholarships and Prizes for
students and research workers at this College.
’’Finally, I must thank all those who have attended this commemoration meeting.
On behalf of the College I extend to them a most cordial welcome and invitation to
participate in each item on the published programme of the celebrations—the Arts
and Science Exhibitions; the debates; the sports ; the musical and dramatic
performances by students of the College, put and present; and the Re-Union on
the 19th of June. On behalf of the College 1 offer our most respectful thanks to
our most distinguished old boy, Rashtrapati Dr. Rajendra Prasad, whom we have
the honour to welcome a second time to his old College (the fipt was in December,
1952), and who has been gracious enough to have come all the way from Panchmarhi
to preside over the centenary of his beloved College; to our Visitor, RajyapaJ
Dr. Harendra Coomer Mockerjee, yet another distinguished old boy, who has
graced the occasion with his presence ; and to Acharya Dr. Jadunath Sarkar, one
of the oldest and most distinguished of our ex-students and ex-professors living,
who hu kindly inaugurated this evening's proceedings. 1 am sure you would all
join with me when, on this gerat centenary day, I wish to our dear old College, on
behalf of you all, a future even more glorious than her pest. As I look at this queen
of colleges in the hundredth year of her existence, 1, as a member of the institution,
fee! like echoing those words of Shakespeare :
Thy eternal summer shall not fade.

* "

Next, the Visitor of the College, Rajyapal Hareodrakumar Mukhopadhyay

(in the College from 1897 to 1898) addressed tbe gathering
'‘Today we celebrate the hundredth anniversary of one of the most important of

dates in the history of education in Bengal, I may also say, of India. —the conversion
of the Hindu College into the Presidency College, Calcutta, on the !5th of June
"The Hindu College was founded in IS 17 by a body of enterprising Indians and

Europeans interested in the spread of Western education, headed by Raja Ram
Mohun Roy, David Hare, Gopee Mohun Deb and Maharaja Tejchand Bahadur
of Burd wan. Its avowed object was to disseminate knowledge of English literature,
modern European philosophy and Western science. Although the Hindu College
gradually evolved into a prosperous educational institution, its outlook was certainly
narrow, for as its name implied, it was open only to young people of the Hindu
community. This denominationalism ran counter to its professed ideal, for if
modem science, philosophy and literature have any single prominent characteristic
it is their aon-sectarian secularism.
"It was, therefore, quite in the fitness of things that when on the I Sth June, 1855,
Government formally took over the management, the name of the institution was
changed and it was thrown Open to students of all classes and communities. Since
then, it has been imparting instruction to Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Buddhists,
Parsecs, Jains and others and has come to play an important part in the socio-cultural
life of Bengal and according to some, of India also to a certain extent.
"Looking at the history of the College from yet another point of view, we find
that it had for many years a Law Department attached to it. Tbe Engineering
College once formed part of it. It had for several years commercial classes and
also for some time a class in music. All this shows that the Presidency College,
Calcutta, has not only hecD the home of learning in arts and science but has also
been something like a fountain from which has flowed many educational, professional
and cultural streams.
"The institution has all along maintained a high level of scholarship as our
premier College. In 1917 it suffered a temporary loss of prestige when, as a result
of the starting of the centralised Post-Graduate Department of the University of
Calcutta, it was reduced practically to the status of an undergraduate college, but
many of its members went on working as part-time teachers of the University-
Today, under the Calcutta University Act of 1951 it has regained its old status by
getting recognition at a Constituent College of our University.
“Many of its teachers—Sir J. C. Bose, Acharya Sir P. C. Ray, Sir J. C. Coyajee,
Dr. P. K. Ray, Dr. C. E. Cullis, Professors Holland, Percival, Mann, M, Ghosh,
Bipin Bihari Gupta and Benoyendra Nath Sen to name only a few—attained fame
in India and in the wider field lying beyond her shores. It had, too, some very
distinguished Principals like Messrs. Sutcliffe, Tawney, Rowe and James.
"So far as its students are concerned, it has been claimed with pardonable exag
geration that anybody who is somebody in Bengal has been connected with the
Presidency College. Tbe great Bankim Chandra Chatterji was one of its first two
graduates, Indian leaders of Lhc Bench and the Bar were most of them its alumni,
and So were Sir Ashutosh Mookeijee and other great Indian educationists. The
College claims, too, among its old boys Deshbandhu Chittaranjan Das and Nelaji
Subhas Chandra Bose as also the first President of the Republic of India, Dr.
Rajendra Prasad, whom we are privileged to have in our midst today to preside
over the meeting, no less than many of India's leading men in science and arts and
her foremost historian, my revered teacher, who, happily, is present here to take
part in today's function.

CBLEBRATIOH9 331
"In our days it was our good fortune to sit at the feet of some of the eminent
teachers, whose names have been just mentioned, to not only lay up a store of useful
knowledge but also to derive inspiration from and through them. More than that,
they let us loose in the library and encouraged us to browse in this rich treasure-
house. It was thus that we were insensibly trained to grope, to analyse and to think
for ourselves and to arrive at our own conclusions which, let me add, were not
always correct.
‘'There was still another factor which had the effect of making us refuse to accept
generally held orthodox views simply because they emanated from highly respectable
quarters. For hours together, some of us would congregate in a comer of the li
brary or, more frequently, in the room of a classmate in the Hindu Hostel and,
buddled in uncomfortable groups, would drink cup after cup of tea, some smoking
al) the time, and either attack or defend almost every conceivable orthodox opinion.
The excellent training thus acquired prevented us from accepting blindly what other
people, however highly placed and eminent, said and enabled us to keep all the
windows, so to say, of our mind open. It also taught us intellectual honesty and
the courage to radically alter or to modify our views when we considered them
incorrect. Looking back at what I learnt from participating in these discussions
nearly 60 years ago, I feel that the time spent in thinking, arguing and questioning
stands out decidedly as time very well and profitably spent.
“Though for years past I have ceased to have direct contact with my old College,
I sincerely trust that the tradition established in our days continues to play a vital
role in shaping the minds of its. students today,
“This is an occasion which makes one think not only of past achievements but
also of future possibilities. I hope that students of this College will continue to
win laurels in the University examinations as well as in the spheres of athletics,
sports and games in which 1 notice to my regret a noticeable falling off in recent
years; that, not content with securing academic distinctions and shields, cups and
other trophies, they will develop into worthy citizens of a free country and that
Presidency College will continue to be a centre of learning, a nursery of scholars
and, more than that, a creator of national leaders.
“I may be excused if I close on a personal note. More than half a century ago
I entered this College as an obscure and very shy youth who always deliberately
refrained from availing himself of such facilities as existed in those days of coming
in contact with his teachers. Nonetheless, I remember with gratitude that I was
compelled to come out of my shell end to participate in the academic, athletic and
other extra-mural activities of my College. That is why 1 still cherish with a deep
sense of thankfulness my association with this great seat of learning and the centre
of (what was in those days) wholesome and absolutely clean sport. I also take
this opportunity of acknowledging my gratitude for (he inspiration I received from
and through my teachers and the influence exercised by them on my life and character
al) through the long years after I left this College in 1898.
“I hope that the teachers of today will remember the tradition sought to be estab
lished by their illustrious predecessors and that all its future alumni will have cause
to remember their connection with this institution with the same affection and
gratitude with which 1 look back to the happy time spent within its walls.”
The concluding address was delivered in Bengali by Rashtrapati Rajendra
Prasad (in the College from 1902 to 1907):—

Building, and Physics, Geology, Botany, Statistics, Physiology, Zoology in the Baker
Laboratories.
The Centenary Exhibition remained open also on the next four days from 2 p.m.
to 5 p.m. and attracted very big crowds. Teachers and students bad worked hard
in organising it and tbe display was something of a triumph. There was splendid
work done by the volunteers, it is regretted that their names cannot be listed here
for lack of space. Tbe catalogue of the Exhibits will be found in later pages.
