Our college has played the most crucial role in my life – in every STEP of my graduation. Unlike other students I not only got to learn from the experienced faculty in the best of the subjects but I was also provided with privileges that made the journey smoother and stronger. Personally, I enjoyed the first semester with utmost fun - attending various workshops, events and trips before covid hit us. Covid didn't affect me, but my Orthopaedic surgery did. Post the surgery, I was not able to be my old self. I thought I would never be able to move around as freely as I used to. But this is where our college played the most important part. Our college granted me a full six - week leave to completely recover post operation and let me attend the upcoming internals in an easily accessible room; by the time I had to attend the classes regularly for my conduct and attendance, our principal and lecturers made me feel comfortable with the seating arrangements such that I could walk without any tussle.
Just to my luck the elevator which was under construction was made fully functional and I could use it with the assistance of a friend. The most supportive act, which probably no other institution would ever have done is that - they let my mother accompany me to college daily, to stay throughout. Since the operation was a major one, I needed someone to help me, personally, other than my friends. When I appealed, my mother would attend the college with me for the next semester. Our principal granted the permission without a second thought. All my previous classes were shifted to the ones closer to the elevator to avoid stairs; and all the teaching and non-teaching faculty were very cordial with my mother, which made her experience much better. To the classrooms which were difficult for me to reach, our lecturers provided me with the notes of all the classes I missed and helped me with attendance too. All this encouragement from the college and its members had become the main source of my positive mental health, aiding me in a speedy physical recovery than the expected pace. Doctors instructed me to be active and in college, walking from one classroom to another worked like therapy. I can, never in my life, forget the help and encouragement I was showered with. I shall always strive to return something to the college, with the values I learned from here.
I am forever grateful to the institution, to the principal, vice principal, correspondent, and all the teaching and non-teaching staff for helping me during the toughest phase of my life.
