The vision of the founder, Reverend Stephen Hislop can be summed up in the following words: We must give not only such an education as will be received by the poor, but such an education as will be prized by the rich and middle class of society, embracing instruction in all those branches of science and literature which they wish their young to study. It is this vision that has guided Hislop College all through its more than a century old history. The college was and is committed to the underprivileged section of the society and yet strives to achieve and maintain excellence in education. Today, more than a century after it was established, the college remains a leader in teaching in central India. It is a grand landmark to be legitimately proud of. Please explore our college. We believe you will discover something for yourself.


WHERE THERE IS NO VISION, THE PEOPLE PERISH.
