Farewell for students

Today, the juniors arranged a farewell party to their seniors. Students had come with a special attire which gave a ceremonial look at the Department. With feelings and emotions the students expressed their experiences during their stay in the Department. It was really nice to hear and amazed to see their observations about the teachers. I had an opportunity to speak. In my talk I concentrated on life long learning attitude that needs to be developed by one and all.
