"Dedication by students is as essential as dedication by teachers. The true gift to a teacher is to honour them by doing well and making them proud by hard work and by coming out in shining colours’ said Prof P Shantharama, former trustee of Expert Group of Institutions.
Prof Ramachandra Bhat, principal of Expert PU College said, "No one is a loser, everyone wins in his own way." He imparted his knowledge by sharing his experience as to how the institution is a balance of excellent education with individual virtues and it is necessary for students to strike a balance between the two.
Prof Narendra L Nayak, Chairman of Expert Group of Institutions said, "We must have a good ear to listen and a good heart to respond. We must be humble and down to earth. A teacher sows the seeds of knowledge and patiently nurtures them to produce tomorrow’s dream. If any student goes against the will of the teacher, he will not succeed in life. The goal is ahead of the students and teachers should guide them to reach the goal."
The dignitaries offered floral tribute to Dr Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan. On this occasion, the chief guest Dr Devaraj K was felicitated for his enormous contribution to the field of education. Ex-Science, an Expert Science Club was inaugurated by the chief guest. Various cultural activities by the teachers followed. Prizes were distributed by the chief guest to the students who won in various competitions.
Ronnel Fernandes and Anagha Bhat compered the programme and Vimarsha B, cultural secretary of the Students’ Council proposed the vote of thanks. The cultural co-ordinator Deepti Joshi and the programme director of Teachers’ Day Zita D’Souza were also present.
