When India was celebrating its new-found independence, the Carmelite Sisters of St. Teresa sought to fill a lacuna in women's education. Thus began Mount Carmel College on the 7th of July 1948 with just fifty students on its rolls. A single building housed the classrooms, office, hostel, library, convent and the chapel. Thatched sheds served as labs as the college set forth to fulfill its vision. By the end of the year its number had dwindled to just 32 students and one could only smile in disbelief when K.C.Reddy, the then Chief Minister of Karnataka said, "A day will come when this college will have to turn away students."
