An Association of Geography Students
The word “meridian” is defined as the moment when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. It is a symbol of a peak and a moment of clarity.
At the Department of Geography, St. John’s College, Agra, we believe in guiding our students on a trajectory that will help them reach their own professional “meridian.” The Meridian Society is where that journey begins.
As the Official Association of Geography Students of the Department of Geography, St. John’s College, Agra, we are a community dedicated to illuminating the diverse paths available to you and helping you achieve the pinnacle of your career.
Meet Our Leaders
The Dialogue: Mapping Migration: Why Is Everyone Moving?

The Dialogue: One Planet, One Ocean: Spreading Ocean Literacy
