SOURASHTRA COLLEGE FOR WOMEN MADURAI (SCW)

The emblem of Sourashtra College for Women, Madurai (SCW) features a gopuram of the Madurai Meenakshi Amman Temple representing the college as a ‘Tower of Knowledge’ in the temple city of Madurai. It also reflects the institution's location on Pasumalai Hill, overlooking sacred sites. A ’kuthuvilakku’ (traditional lamp) and an open are placed on the sides of the gopuram. The motifs are ensconced by a circular border inscribed with the name and place of the college and its motto in Tamil ‘கற்றனை த்தூறும் அறிவு’ (396, Thirukkural, Thiruvalluvar) meaning ‘Knowledge will Flow to the Extent of the Education Acquired by the People’. The lamp symbolises enlightenment and the dispelling of ignorance through education; and the book represents formal education, academic excellence, and the dissemination of knowledge for social development.
