Graduation is an exciting time. It’s both an ending and a beginning; it bears warm memories of the past and big dreams for the future. So did the students, parents and guests from different parts of India gathered under one roof at Christ Institute of Management on 7th July 2017, on the momentous occasion of the 2nd convocation ceremony of the batch 2015-2017.

The ceremonious procession was made all the more colorful by the Band of St. Joseph’s Academy began from the entrance of the B Block of the Institution to the seminar hall. Jatin Bhatia, the student of the year 2016, led the procession of the beaming seniors walking with an air of true achievers. So did the proud faculty along with the Chairman and director and other dignitaries.

The Chief Guest of the 2nd Convocation ceremony was Prof. Dr. John Varghese, Principal, St. Stephen’s College, Delhi. Rev Fr. Dr. Jose CC, Chairman-Board of Governors, Rev Fr. Sunny Joseph, Vice Chairman-Board of Governors, Rev Fr. Jossey George, Director-Christ Lavasa campus and Prof Dr. Saju K James, Director Ghaziabad campus solemnized the occasion


The programme formally commenced with the Institution’s anthem followed by the lightning of the lamp, signifying the absence of darkness, grief and unhappiness. This was followed by the welcome address by Mr. Sanjib Bhattacharji, the academic co-coordinator. Prof Dr. Saju K James addressed the gathering after which Rev Fr Dr Jose CC, Chairman, Board of Governors declared the ceremony open.

 

The moment which each graduating student and proud parents looked forward to, the conferment of their diploma, PGDM, commenced with the academic excellence certificates being awarded to the academic toppers: Ms Samridhi Ohri and Ms Sukriti Zareen Jacob. After receiving their certificates, the graduating students were administered the graduating pledge by the Placement Head, Mr Hadrine Pereira. The Chief Guest Dr. John Varghese addressed the proud graduates and reminded them to keep their feet firmly on the ground while aiming high. He advised them to stay calm and to use the intelligence to bridge the gap between the classroom and workplace.  Rev Fr. Dr Jose CC presented the Chief Guest with a memento as a token of our gratitude before speaking to the audience and inspiring them with his words of wisdom.
 


An Alumni of our Institute then stepped forward to share his experience as a working professional during the last one year and expressed his gratitude in preparing the steps to tread the road which is harsh and horrid.  This was followed by the sharing of some heartfelt thoughts and hopes for the days to come, by the student representative Ms Sukriti Zareen Jacob.
As expressed by Ernie Harwell “It's time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I'd much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure.” the choir bid adieu to the batch of 2015-2017, through a meaningful farewell song. The convocation ceremony was declared officially closed after the farewell song.

The function concluded with the release of the Institute magazine, Prism - by the Director, Christ Institute of Management, Lavasa, Rev Fr. Dr. Jossey George. He presented the first copy to a graduating student, Abhinav Pratap Singh, an incumbent employee with Ameriprise, where five more graduating students are well placed. As is the practice, the event concluded with Ms Sarika Jain, Faculty- Finance, proposing the vote of thanks. Every one gathered proudly rendered the national anthem in unison after which the ceremonial procession moved out of the seminar hall, leaving behind a bunch of extremely exalted Happy Christites –now- turned proud alumni of one of the best B-School of NCR. After a long round of hugs and congratulations everyone relished the tasty food arranged at the ground floor.
