From the Principal's desk
In the 1960s, education in our taluk was a distant dream for most people. Shri Ganesh Hegde Dodmane took this as a challenge and made herculean efforts to make that dream real.
Shikshana Prasarak Samiti, established in 1952–53, became the mother body for institutions from KG to PG. Mahatma Gandhi Centenary College, the brainchild of Shri Ganesh Hegde Dodmane, opened in 1969, the birth centenary of the Father of the Nation, and was the first to offer higher education in the taluk.
Following the government's education policy, the PU section of M.G.C. College became an independent college in 2001, named Mahatma Gandhi Centenary Pre-University College. Founder principal Prof. Seetamma V. Bhat laid a strong foundation.
