Today, I came across this information from the net about the standing of the college department wise among the affiliated colleges of Anna University. It was indeed a very pleasant information.
We stand in the fifth place in Civil and CSE; eighth in Mechanical, fourteenth in EEE and first in Metallurgy.
I would say that students deserve all the credit for their contribution. I also feel that our students become all rounders - because they participate in and organise all the events at college (they are simply amazing in their event managements...I swear they know the best rates, the best offers, the best technical teams, the best tips for technical efficiency...I mean I could go on...) .
Another laudable feature is that they just dont hesitate to do any odd jobs, be it fitting out systems, preparing brochures, printing, pasting, posting, inviting even the Presidents of companies, tweaking instruments and devices, learning new skills ( you know, they throng Five Roads in the evnings for their special courses...I don't know how they find time for all this...whew).
They are also perfectly well behaved...you don't find stand offish or proud children here...they are simple and down to earth.
Ofcourse, they are also sometimes late to class, wake up at 9.15 for a 9.00 class, dont take baths, never shave, never clean behind their ears, are to be found in theatres from Friday to Friday, they never read newspapers....the list is endless. Inspite of all this, they are good at their studies, they are updated with the newest skills technically and nowadays, they talk a dime to the dozen in English....
Maybe, I may seem to be blowing the trumphet too loudly, but I stand by every word.

Chitra M'am,
Am so happy to stumble upon your blog....Oh my Gosh! It's been such a long time. Well, SORRY, in all my excitement, i forgot to reintroduce myself.....This is Rekha Rajasekaran, your student in Cluny. I passed out in 1992. I was in the same batch as Radhika Palan,Bhuvaneshwari,Nirmala,Smitha Parsuraman,Priya C, Sudha.......Does that ring a bell? Am in touch with Bhuvana and she told me about your move from Cluny to GCT and also about your Doctarate. Congratulations Ma'am!
To briefly explain my journey after i left Cluny, was in St Joseph's for my 11th and 12th, moved to Ethiraj College Chennai for my BSc Comp Sci, and then to Trichy for my MCA. Got married in 2001 and moved to U.S Cleveland (Ohio) and i have a 3 year old daughter Khaviya. I was in India (Salem) for a 5 week vacation (Feb-March) and i visited Cluny. I always have such good memories of this place, and thought about all of you. Felt good.........My parents are in Salem, and my brother is doing his MBAIT at University of Melbourne. How are your sons doing? Am so glad to be in touch with you........You can get back to me at khaviyabalaji@gmail.com.This is exciting.........!
