December 3rd is the Feast of St. Francis Xavier, the Patron of this Institute. This year is a special year as it is the beginning of the 500th year of his Birth. It is also the 500th year of the Birth of Blessed Peter Faber and 450th death anniversary of St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuit Society (SJ). All three of them were instrumental in establishing the Jesuit Society in 1540.

In their honour we will have a high tea at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow, December 2, 2005 in the Institute Lawn. All faculty, staff and students are invited to join in the celebration.
