CONCLUSION

As I near the end of this report my heart is filled with gratitude to all those who have

contributed to make this academic year a fruitful and satisfying one. Many have collaborated

with me in the administration of this College. First and foremost, I express my deep gratitude

to the Almighty God. He has been a mighty hand that has led all of us throughout the academic

year. I owe my gratitude to our Correspondent Very Rev.Fr.Alfred J. Pinto for his guidance

and support. At this moment I thank the Management, the Campus Director, the Principal and

the Staff of Degree College. I thank the Deans, all the staff members both teaching and

administrative staff who have stood by me throughout the academic year.

My whole hearted thanks to all parents, and alumni who have been in touch with us during the

year and their valuable suggestions helped us to improve. I look forward to your continued

support in our march towards success.

Dear students, my deep felt thanks to all of you. I am sure that our collective endeavour shall

take our college to greater heights in serving the society in a meaningful and positive manner.

It is our good fortune that today we have amidst Dr B. Shyam Prasad Shetty, Head, Dept of

Cardiothoracic & Vascular Surgery as the Chief Guest. His ready acceptance to be here with us

on this eventful day shows his deep appreciation for this college and all that goes on here. We

eagerly look forward to his words of wisdom.

On the threshold of completing this Annual Report I pause for a moment to recall the words of

Samuel Johnson who said, “ Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless. Knowledge

without integrity is dangerous and dreadful”. We have always done our best to ensure that

every student in our care inculcates knowledge with integrity and marches forward to build a

powerful but compassionate India. Let us work together so that the youth, who are our future,

blossom into mighty catalysts who transform our beloved Motherland into the Utopia of our

dreams.

Thank you once again for your gracious presence and constant support. I wish you a pleasant

day. May God bless us all.
