President’s Views
It gives me great pleasure to address you
on this auspicious occasion of our alumni
reunion. A day like this is very important
as it gives us the opportunity to meet with
many of our graduates after a long time.
The alumni are able to meet each other,
their former lectures and other staff. It
also enables t h e alumni to familiarize
themselves with the developments at the
alma mater. Allow me to tender my
gratitude to each and every one of you
for finding time to be with us today. It
takes a lot of sacrifice to set aside time out
Swami Sachchidanand Polytechnic College Alumni Association
E-News letter
of your busy schedules and come over to
such a function. I do hope that the
experiences of this day will be worth the
sacrifice you have made.
A decade ago, ours was a tiny, struggling
organization. Today, our students and
scholars cover the globe in their search for
knowledge and meaning, and their
contributions make a difference everywhere.
As alumni who truly love and faithfully
support this great institution, I know you
share my pride in what we are doing and
where we plan to go. In recent years our
institute has steadily been building our
capacity to create a truly an exquisite
institute in the field of technical education.
In my view, greatness requires four things:
wonderful students enjoying a tremendous
student experience; very successful faculty;
a supportive campus learning environment;
and substantial financial resources.
A living institution makes an impact on
everything it touches on the minds and
dreams and characters of students, on the
world of ideas and their practical
application as we transfer knowledge and
innovations to the world beyond our
campus, and on the communities with
which we engage, locally and around the
globe. As we inspire our students,
sometimes they repay us in full measure.
As I come to a close, I would like to
reiterate the role you play in the wider
society. Most of you hold key positions of
influence. I would appreciate to see that
you use the influence to direct the
development of our society positively.
You should always endeavour to uphold
good morals and act as an inspiration to the
society. I want to thank all of you for the
amazing support you have always extended
to the alma mater. Thank you. I hope all of
you will surly enjoy meeting your respected
teachers, old friends and share your
views and opinions and also enjoy the
arrangement of lunch and have a wonderful
day of this get together.
