Chairman
Dear Students,
It gives me great pleasure and a sense of pride to address the students of SICASA- Ernakulam as Chairman. It is indeed a great honour and privilege to hold this post and I am extremely grateful to my colleagues in the managing committee of Ernakulam branch, especially to CA Deepa Varghese, under whose leadership Ernakulam Branch of SICASA has been adjudged the SIRC Best Branch of Students’ Association among the Large & Mega Category SICASA Branches for the year 2019.
The month of February saw elections at various levels of the Institute. The elections to SICASA Ernakulam was also held in the third week of February. My congratulations to all newly elected members of the Committee. We have set a target of achieving the best branch on an all India basis and with all your support this will definitely be possible.
As in the case of previous months, February was also packed with activities for students.
We had lecture meetings, study circles, a merit evening for those who had completed various stages of the course and for the first time in SICASA Ernakulam’s history – an e-sports tournament which was well received by Students.
We’re looking forward to a very exciting March with various academic activities planned. Most of you will be looking forward to bank audits and I implore you to make the best out of the bank audit seminar that has planned for the 20th of March. I also request you to come up with suggestions for new events we can do at SICASA. General suggestions are also welcome.
A message for those of you who are preparing for your exams in May 2020 - as hard as it may be, please stay off your phones – those unread messages and your friends will still be there after your exams.
To conclude I would like to quote Yoda – Do, or do not. There is no “try”.
