MERIN GEORGE
'Towards life in its fullness" was the motto of our college. From this motto alone, a student can comprehend the value of our college. LISSAH is like a family, fostering love and consideration. Our college provides numerous opportunities to pursue our goals and talents. The management, staff, and non-teaching personnel were supportive, serving as the backbone for the students.
I was a student in the Department of Social Work, considered one of the best in our college. In social work, we engage extensively with the community and hospitals, making our experiences more practical and socially oriented. Observation visits, fieldwork, and rural camps contribute significantly to our practical and social development. Many of my colleagues have been placed in various hospitals and counseling centers as social workers, a testament to our teachers great efforts and encouragement.
I believe LISSAH can be chosen as a better option for studying social work. LISSAH and my department have played a pivotal role in shaping who I am today.''
