ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT

A permanent feature of Loyola College is its initiative and participation in maintaining the eco-friendly nature of the campus. It became a usual sight in the college that every Wednesdays the students as well as the staff members are together working to maintain the greenery. The entire NSS volunteers are grouped into four for this purpose and a voluntary leader and two staff guides were given to each group. The NSS Programme Officer will be the overall Co-ordinator of the programme and he/ she is assisted by the student Co-ordinator.  Every week the groups take the turn to clean up the campus and when the work is over after hour refreshments were provided to all the participants. 

  • To foster higher sensitivity to bio-diversity and awareness about ecology and environment. Three bio-diversity parks are there in Loyola campus to bring in the concept of diverse flora and fauna.
  • Three bio-diversity parks
