Feedback from our students
This study trip and excursion gave us new inspiration, and we enjoyed new experiences – Ms. C. Dhitchika, first year B.Sc., Costume Design Student, pointed out this in her two-day field trip.
Ms. D. Deepika, third year B.Sc., Costume Design and Fashion Design, mentioned this two-day field trip. In her speech, she said, that type of tour programmes helped us to share many new things with our friends. I am a native of Sendamangalam in Namakkal District. For the past 19 years, I haven’t heard of famous tourist places like Mahabalipuram, Vedanthangal and Puducherry. Fortunately, I enjoyed this two-day trip. I convey my gratitude to the Management, Principal and my faculty members also.
