Fr Mathew Lewis S.J. was the seventeenth Rector of St Aloysius College from 1966 - 72. He later returned to be the twentieth Rector again from 1977 – 80. He was found be the most fitting man to handle the mammoth task of the Aloysian Centenary celebrations.
It was during Fr Mathew’s second tenure that the then President of India the late Dr Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy visited the College. He had a good organizing capacity. Once the centenary was over, Fr Mathew Lewis opted to work as a missionary with the poorest of the poor in Mundgod in North Karnataka.
