Mangaluru, Jun 5: The student orientation programme plays a vital role in student’s transition and evolvement. Effective communication between the students and teachers is always beneficial. In pursuit of the same, Ladyhill Victoria PU College, Urwa, Mangaluru organised an orientation programme for all the students on June 2 in the PUC Conference Hall. The programme was presided over by our principal Sr Sharmila AC and Vaishnavi S, former student, and a member of the alumna association.
