St.Stephens college in Delhi University - one of the most famous colleges in Delhi

St. Stephens college in North Delhi, in the Delhi University campus, is one of the most famous colleges in India, reputed for many of its courses, including Economics. The college has a variety of courses for both under-graduates and post-graduates, famous for arts and science courses as well.
The college is pretty old, having been started in 1881 as a religious institution by the Cambridge Brotherhood, an Anglican mission, and even now retains the status of a minority institution, affiliated to the Christian diocese in Delhi. Since the college was started before Delhi University was set up (in 1922), it was initially affiliated to the University of Calcutta. The college was founded by the Rev. Samuel Scott Allnutt, and his remains are buried within the campus of the college.
The first location of the college was in Chandni Chowk, which was moved over to the next campus in the Kashmere Gate area. The current famous building of the college is a landmark, designed by a Welsh architect, Walter Sykes George. The building was completed during the World War 2, and completed in 1941. But before the completion of this building, the campus was located in the crowded Kashmiri gate year, the place where DCE used to be earlier. The current campus has a hostel, allowing 300 men and 100 women (who were allowed into the college only in 1928) to stay on the college campus.
The College motto is Ad Dei Gloriam, Latin for To the Glory of God. The College colours are martyr's red and Cambridge blue. Some of the famous alumni of St. Stephens can be found on this link (Wikipedia).
