The motto of the Cotton College – Guwahati 'Apramattena Veddhavyam', taken from the Mundaka Upanisad signifies that knowledge in any field, whether technical, professional or general must be attained with an unfaltering aim. In attaining knowledge in proper perspective, without being perturbed by various anxieties-mundane or spiritual, one must be absorbed with one's goal in view. Remaining indifferent to obstacles or hurdles that may come along the way, one must pursue knowledge with concentration and perseverance. It is the avowed aim of the Cotton College – Guwahati, therefore, to prepare the youth to remain resolutely fixed to their goal and the ever changing values and perspectives of life so as to enable them to identify themselves as conscious, integrated and wholesome human beings capable of meeting the challenges and opportunities of life in the noblest and most disciplined way.
The official emblem of
Cotton College – Guwahati was unveiled in the year 1933. The emblem was designed by Late Mohendra Nath Deka Phukan, an ex-Cottonian. This emblem is just like a shield meaning the symbol of protection of Assam. The shield comprises of two colours - orange signifying the sense of Tyaga wherein lies the sense of renunciation and green symbolizing peace. The oval-shaped arc with eight corners reminds us of the glory of Ahom kingdom. The blue colour is used to mean the clear and vast sky that teaches us to widen our hearts embracing all. The hills in the emblem remind us of the Asomiya people belonging to the plains and hills of Assam. The rising sun behind the hills symbolizes hope and light. The sun also signifies that it is the dispeller of darkness. The lamp burning in the middle is used to indicate the light of knowledge. The "Sarai" immediately below the lamp tells us of the glory of ancient Assam. The stars indicate the path of progress beyond limitation.
