A very good afternoon.
My task is an easy one – to say, “Thank you.”
Nine years ago, at my first Diploma Ceremony, the numbers we had were not so many and it would not have warranted this kind of venue in size, but today, it is overflowing – making us to think out of the box.
This event could not have been possible if it was not for the students – actually the college exists because there are students. Thanks for standing in branding “EWC” and making us proud.
