Congratulations to batch IL1708 aka ‘Cream of the Crop' graduates! To all of you, I hope for the best! Today, IL1708 graduate has made it! This is one of the major steps in the journey of your lives, one that should be recognized for its immense significance, as you all worked hard to get to this day, and your work did not go to waste. But your education doesn’t end today.
Quote from Robert Louis Stevenson, ‘Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.’ This is only the first chapter as you commence your career, as it is a life long learning ‘education’. Each of you is now moving your way to make use of your creative power and creating a life that is filled with opportunities. Therefore, you have to live a life that is meaningful, approach any challenges with determination, and a teachable attitude.
Remember those dreams that could drive your passion. After you are being molded and tested, you will come forth like gold. Your Diploma is not a milestone, but a stepping-stone in your life. So please find your passion and get to it! As ‘The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.’
~Leo Chong, Head of IL Department
