College Song

To
Colvin College, a noble toast
we raise
With deepest gratitude and accolades of
praise
Our rooms, grounds, galleries resound (fore'er)
with fame
May honour surround our Alma Mater's name.
To
Colvin College, a noble
toast we raise
With deepest gratitude and accolades of
praise.
Noblesse
Oblige is stamped
upon our minds
For (the) rich and poor, it's the
tie that binds.
With dignity and grace, our
homage now we pay
For youthful memories can
never fade away.
Burden
Our
blue and navy banners may always flutter
high
Pointing to the success which reaches the
sky.
On our play fields every
victory we win (won?)
We should ever strive until
our cause is won.
Burden
Forgetting
not our motto to
perform noble deed(s)
Of pursuing our aim and serve
our action need (nation's needs?)
Colvinians do your duty, be loyal, just
and true
Our College and our country
expect this of you.

Sir Auckland Colvin,
K.C.M.G., C.I.E. (Lieutenant Governor
of the N. W. Provinces) while functioning
as Lieutenant Governor of Avadh and
Agra during the year 1889, conceived
the idea of a school with the object
of imparting education to the wards
of the court and sons of the Taluqdars'
of Avadh. The 'wards' class, founded
in 1884, formed the nucleus for the
establishment of the Taluqdars' College.
The foundation of the College building,
at its present site, was laid on 11th
March, 1889 and the school became functional,
after the Opening Ceremony in March
1892. The first Academic Session started
on 12 May, 1892 with 16 students out
of which 13 were Resident Scholars.
Junior and Senior Cambridge classes
began on 24 April, 1933.
Till 1933, the School was conducted
exclusively for, and on behalf of, the
Taluqdars' community, but, when it was
recognized as an Intermediate (Arts)
College, admissions were thrown open
to all. In 1945 the college started
classes in Intermediate Science with
help of its Parent Body, the British
Indian Association.
In 1982, the College got itself affiliated
to the Council for Indian School Certificate
Examination, New Delhi. Since then,
students have been free to join any
of the two streams that exist in the
College. |
