From the longest serving to the shortest tenure in Father Muller history of student council, what mattered was amicability and zeal to do better. Though the faces were masked, the beaming eyes showed the enthusiasm to carry on the works of the college to greater heights. Like a leaf which sways higher in the wind the students with the support of their management and faculty can reach higher heights. He quoted Micheal Jorden “ I failed and failed a many times to taste success in life”. The impressions you make, the friends you amass, the managerial skills you hone will make you a true Mullerian and leader of many in times to come.

All stood still in reverence to the Alma Mater as the institutional anthem played.

Though the pandemic had derailed the student council, their zeal and enthusiasm to bring the strength in each other shined brighter than the sun. Gleaming and confident a new team arises.
