Thirty-eight students have joined the Department of Journalism for the 2029–30 batch, marking the beginning of a vibrant new chapter. Their arrival introduces fresh energy, ideas, and perspectives to the campus. We embark on this journey with their written reflections about the very first day of college. Through these accounts, they express their dreams and aspirations for the future. Together, their words shape the spirit of the department and set the tone for the years ahead.
