Graduation Day is an important event in a student's life because it is the culmination of a phase of their academic achievement. Christ Junior College held the annual Graduation Day today, 9January 2010, The entire Graduation day ceremony was carried out with solemnity, yet there was something charming that made students reflect upon their future and set goals about what they expect in the future.

Fr Jose C.C, Principal, Christ Junior College, in his Graduation day message ,urged the students to "break barriers and make the world happy ".His message on making records in the academic field was received gladly, by the graduating class .The Guest of Honour for the event was Fr. Dr. Augustine Thottakkara, Chancellor, Christ University and Rector of Dharmaram College. Fr. Augustine in his keynote address, pointed out that a systematic work culture would take the students a long way. He exhorted the students to pursue academics with a scientific temper and to impart their knowledge to others in society. Mr. Xavier Louis D'souza, who represented the class teachers, reached out to the students with a simple message of a Guru's love to his wards and shared his wisdom on how to remain happy in life. Mr. Jugnu Oberoi, alumnus of Christ College, reminded the students to express their gratitude to the people in their lives who had helped them come this far in life.

The Oath taking ceremony by the graduating class and the representative students of the junior class with the flame of knowledge in their hands was not just a show of solidarity to the Alma Mater but was also symbolic of the continuum of the legacy of education. The focus of our baccalaureate ceremony was to hand over the course completion certificates to the students, besides congratulating them on working hard to achieve his/ her purpose.

A nostalgic charm was rendered to the day when the valedictorians- chosen to represent the three streams and the evening college- took the stage for their valedictory expressions. A thanks giving and a farewell song was penned and tuned especially for the occasion and the college choir rendered it melodiously.

Our Graduation day was attended by parents, well-wishers, friends and faculty members to support and cheer the students. Our formal Graduation day programme culminated in the Graduation lunch hosted by the college.
