Mangalore, Apr 5: The principal as well as the registrar of St Aloysius College have asserted that as per the state High Court order, the students of the college are eligible to get awards, medals and degrees at the convocation of Mangalore University to be held on Tuesday April 6.
Mangalore University has been claiming that the students of St Aloysius College, which has become an autonomous college, are not eligible to receive awards, medals and degrees because of the College’s failure to clear its dues with the university. As per the interpretation of the University, the state High Court interim order in this case has not specified that the 2007-08 batch of the students of St Aloysius College has to be awarded degrees, awards and medals.
The principal and registrar of the College have said that the High Court order has clearly said that the students of the College, who are eligible for awards and medals, should be allowed to take part in the convocation, without insisting on payment of registration fee, which has been the bone of contention between the College and the University.
