Mount Mary Higher Secondary School & Mount Mary College observed ‘Freshers Meet’ at Chumukedima Town Council hall on Wednesday with Director of Higher Education, Nagaland, Alempokba Imsong, as the chief guest.
The chief guest in his address impressed the students to value their time as time is of essence, especially for students. Imsong also said students should give enough time and thought in identifying their talents and strengths so that they can choose the right profession or career.
He said most of the students choose three categories while setting their future goal or career: the first category are students who resign themselves to work petty jobs in the state itself, the second are those students who plan to move outside the state and work in other cities. The last category is students who are bold and confident enough to compete in the global job market. Encouraging the students of Mount Mary HSS & College to strive for the third category, Imsong said students should never reduce themselves to mediocrity but aim for the stars to get their dream job or career.
The chief guest also urged upon the school and college authority to introduce vocation courses such as computer, horticulture and floriculture as students should be skilled from their formative stages if they are to forge ahead in life. He also exhorted the teachers to initiate more extracurricular activities and intensify literary activities for wholesome development of the students. Principal of Mount Mary College, Teeya Imsong, delivered the welcome address.
The Freshers Meet was marked by a keen participation from the students who presented a variety of items including special songs, dances and other entertainments. The highlight of the Freshers Meet was the Mr and Miss Freshers competition, where Lichamo (B.A 1st semester) and Mughaholi (Class 11 Arts) were crowned Mr Fresher and Miss Fresher respectively.
