To disable sorting feature for a specific table columns , you can assign the index of column starting from 0 to tablesorter function.
javascript code

<script>
$(document).ready(function() 
    { 
        $("#studentsTable").tablesorter({
		headers: {2: {sorter: false},4: {sorter: false} 
        } 
    });  
    } 
); 
</script>

To set the initial sort, for example fourth column and in ascending order.
javascript code

<script>
$(document).ready(function() 
    { 
       $("#studentsTable").tablesorter({ 
        //   fourth column and i ascending order. 
         sortList: [[3,1]] 
    }); 
    } 
); 
</script>

To run this code you need to have additional packages :
javascript code

<script type='text/javascript' src='jquery-latest.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='jquery.tablesorter.js'></script>
