Mission of the College
The College crest embodies the mission of the College. The Cross which is central to the Christian faith takes the centre stage and unifies the four symbols of our calling. The lighted torch signifies the illuminated personalities; the dove represents tranquility which is the outcome of sound knowledge; the open book enshrines transparency in all dealings, and the lotus implies transcendence. All these values are not static but dynamic-to be transmitted to the successive generations as highlighted by the statements’ Lighted to Lighten’.

different Components of the logo and its explanations
The Circle
Everything begins from a zero. A child is a sign of a new beginning. Titus II Teachers College remembers with gratitude its humble beginning. It pledges all its resources to train a child to be the sign of hope of a tomorrow.
The Child
A circle repeated and placed on the top of the larger circle denotes that every new generation is yet another step towards wholeness. Education today is Child centered. The College celeberating its fifty years touches its wholehearted commitment to the centerednes of a child.
The Learner
The open book challenges all to an unconditional receptivity. Learning is an unending and open ended process. It is this realization which leads us to Enlightenment and empowers us to Lighten. Standing firm on its motto “Lighted to Lighten” represented by the tongue of flame, the college is embarked on a continuous journey towards light.
The Pen
The nib which touches the ground, calls us to be aware that education is not preparation for life, it is life. A life full of realities. Begining with realism, learning is an awakening to infinite optimism of dream becoming realities. The pen with a feather stands for aspirations which will find root and bear fruit only through the hard way of perspiration. The College, the epitome of freedom expressed, will wage a war against all forces that curb responsible freedom.
Fifty
The pen and the Learning Child could be re-read as fifty. Nithyachaithanithi re-reads the story of five thousand fed by Jesus with five loaves very interestingly. He opines that five loaves stand for five senses, which helps us to absorb, integrate and express. The Child then influences not just five thousand but many more. This is the miracle of Learning. Titus II is a miracle.
The Cross
Everything needs a frame. Education is all about creating a frame of reference. The cross is not placed in the centre, not to question its centrality but to affirm it as the universal symbol of sacrifice. The Child is only born when the Guru dies to become nothing.
This is the vision of the college
