ONE-DAY MATCH IN LITERATURE..!

Today (Saturday), enthused by last week's reception that students gave to the conduct of special classes, I had specially and personally invited Prof.Bennet Sundersingh from National College to give a lecture on Poetry to our students. Though the class was meant to be for I BA and II BA English Students, many from other classes had also turned up.

Received him at the Railway Station and he started at 9.45 am and went on till about 1.15 pm. Then, had lunch with him and Dany sir. Nirmal sir popped in during the lecture to meet Prof.Bennet for a 'hello'. Students from all the five classes in Lit had turned up, and Bennet sir was in his elements, just enjoying himself, as he said later. Coffee and snacks were served to all the students.

The response from the students was so good that, almost the entire lot sat for the afternoon session of Prof.Dany on the NOVEL. It all ended by 4 pm.

I, on behalf of the students, take this opportunity to thank Prof.Bennet Sundersingh who took time off to be with us today amidst his busy schedule.
