"Patriotism is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime." Says Adlai Stevenson.

With this saying in mind St. Joseph's College Hassan celebrated the birth anniversary of two eminent personalities of India's freedom movement i.e, Balagangadhar Tilak and Chandrashekar Azad on 23rd of July 2021.

Program was conducted in the college auditorium at 3 p.m. The college principal, Dr Daniel Fernandes SJ presided over the program. Mr Dinesh M Gaonker, the vice- principal, Rev. Fr Balaraju SJ, the finance officer and all the staff members were present for the program.

Program was started by invoking Almighty's blessings through a hymn which was beautifully sung by Ms Jenisia Lasrado from the department of management, which was followed by a welcome address by her. Mr Anil M S from the department of English spoke about Balagangadhar Tilak and Chandrashekar Azad and emphasized on the growing need to inculcate their leadership qualities and selflessness in our students.

Mr Rovin Martis from the department of commerce gave an introduction about national broadcasting day and highlighted the importance of media in our country. He also wished all the best to the Indian athletes who are participating in the Tokyo olympics. He appreciated the tremendous hard work our athletes put up in preparation for olympics.

This was followed by presidential remarks by Dr Daniel Fernandes SJ, Principal of SJC Hassan. He highlighted the many importance of the day. He remembered many of our national leaders and their many sacrifices for the freedom of this country. He spoke about the importance of media in our day to day life and why it is essential to use them to do something good rather than causing unrest among the masses.

It was followed by a vote of thanks by Ms Joyce Mascarenhas who also compared the program beautifully.
