There was a Farewell Party being organized for the passed-out students of 2006-2010 at 4.30 p.m., on 11^th June 10 in the Conference Hall. The Students of 2006-2010 attended the function from the Departments of Civil Engg., Mechanical Engg., Electrical & Electronics Engg., Electronics & Communication Engg., Computer Science Engg., and Information Technology. Our Principal Dr. S. Kathirrvelu made the keynote address, in which he insisted upon 3 Ps – Planning, Perseverance, & Performance, which are the cordinal principles of success in any career. In support of his points, he quoted profusely from Tamil classics in order to make the students get motivated towards becoming winners in life. He advised the students to cultivate positive thinking and to do smart work in order to become successful in their career.

Our Director Sri Vijay Sreenivas advised the students to seek job opportunities in core companies, by developing their technical skills appropriately. He was against engineering graduates taking up assignments in BPO companies. He emphasised that engineers are technocrates, and that they should be technologically well-informed and well-groomed. Upgradation of technocal skills is vital, according to him, in order to shine in the domain of technology.

Several students responded and gave their feedback. They appreciated the college authorities for exploring all avenues for giving quality education and placement opportunities. They were all appreciative of the prevalence of discipline in the campus, and of the efforts being taken to improve the academic results. Some students were all praise for the policies of the colleges, in helping the meritorious students, with scholarships and fee reductions – a significant feature not found in several engineering colleges.

The function ended with the issue of course completion certificates, and with dinner in the mess hall.
