Dharmaraja College Archives has established these web databases and private wikipedia to facilitate collecting and disseminating the historical information.

Please update your information and help to preserve Dharmaraja History,  Traditions and Culture for the future generations.

Though our school is more than 120 year's old it is very sad to say that a very little historical information is available. Your activities, performance, and achievements are hardly recorded. Information of the periods of past principal Mr Billimoria, thanks to his visionary actions, is preserved through the Telescope magazine (bi weekly issued) where few issues preserved with us. Few Rajans magazines (annually issued) reveal subsequent history. The situation is more serious in recent past as no detailed magazine was issued. There was no proper place to preserve information, there is no culture of record keeping and overwhelming amount of college activities may be the main reasons which prevented collecting of information. After establishment of the Archives, now there is a place to preserve the information and we are in the process of collecting information. In order to manage vast amount of information generated, we felt the need of automated system to collect and preserve information.

As a solution we are happy to inform you that a fully fledged Web Database of the Archives is in operation now. It is our intention to make this database, the repository of information of the College. There are several web applications are deployed to provide different information to different stakeholders of the Rajans community. But all of the applications share the same database which gives unified information to all. The basic information of Rajans from year 1913 to date is already entered to the database. The detail data collection is in progress.

 

History Encyclopaedia

E-mail

The Encyclopaedia is a Wikipedia like web site which Rajans can edit. They can edit personal information and also write about the College activities they know. Unlike Wikipeadia this has no restriction on amount of information this can store hence Students, Teachers and anybody related to the College will have a page of his own. As this can be edited only by the registered members, the editor has more responsibility to provide correct information. It is recommended to provide references and also attach or upload possible references. The information without references may be removed if it is disputed.

First the Unions select people in the main database to be the members of the Union. Once a member is selected, all the information of the member is available in the Union database. The authorised officers are allowed to maintain their membership information and change members personal information (if owner has authorised) such as contact details.

Please Donate

As collecting new information that is being generated in the school is challenging, the College Archives need a dedicated paid employee to collect information who can fill the missing gaps while collecting new information.
We are presently raising a fund which will provide a sufficient bank interest to pay a salary for an employee. Please consider to contribute for this noble activity. We seek your generous contributions. Any contribution big or small is welcome. The names of donors of over Rs. 5000.00 will be permanently displayed inside the archives. The list of donations can be accessed through the web (http://archives.dharmaraja.net/ArchivesDB/donations_list.php) and all the payments are subjected to the Principal’s scrutiny. The accounts are audited and are made available to the donors.
