In Sanskrit there is a meaningful line that aptly suits to every student : Vidya dadati vinayam, vinaya dadati paatrataam | Paatratva Dhanamaapnoti, Dhanaat Dharmam tatah sukham which means Knowledge generates humility .....true/ complete. Knowledge gives discipline, from discipline comes worthiness, from worthiness one gets wealth, from wealth one does good deeds and from good deeds joys comes. Students are moulded to get an everlasting joy imparting the wisdom of lecturers in varied subjects in the college. In brief La Salette is committed to shape the students and bring in them overall metamorphosis.
