Basketball Tournament '18

Aspirations. Hopes. These are the usual feelings that one experiences while moving towards a new beginning. We all recently welcomed a new year which is usually bordered with the start of a new chapter and a scope of improvement, either by way of burning out our vices or incorporating more virtues within ourselves or better still, indulging ourselves in a little bit of both in order to build a better version of ourselves. And what better way to begin a new phase of exuberance and optimism than to give way to the spirit of sportsmanship and team work. After all, collective efforts are the best way to take a step closer towards the dreams we have been chasing and wanting to convert into reality for a long long time, which for some people could imply a majority of their life. No one ever reached the heights of success standing alone and one-man armies, more often than not, fail to achieve success in their endeavors.

In the light of this, XISS is organizing a Basketball Tournament for boys and girls of all departments from both batches from 10^th-14^th January, 2018. Come, cheer for your team and provide them with the motivation they need to sail through and attain the victory they deserve, in return for all the hard work they have put in by devoting their heart, soul and blood in the practices which will help them move towards the coveted trophy.

Hoping to see everyone there with their inspiring hats on!!!

My #XISSRanchi Experience.

By Mr. Frank Felix

Department of Marketing (2016-2018)

Experience is just a word to describe loads which I have gained from XISS in a short while. Before joining XISS I was working in a marketing research company in Kolkata as a Business Development Executive, but I realised that in order to gain altitude in my career I needed to study further. That’s why I decided to pursue MBA in Marketing and XISS came as a natural choice as I was aware of the culture of a Jesuit run institution which itself was an assurance of quality. Apart from that, the interactions with the acquaintances I had who were currently studying at the institute was convincing enough for me to select XISS as my primary option.

This is the first time that I have been away from home for studies and the journey till now has been fun. Life at Ranchi has simply been amazing whether it be the rides to Patratu, all the birthday treats which you get to enjoy, the late-night discussions or the group study before exams. It all perfectly falls into place. The classroom environment has been an enriching, one with the equally supportive faculty members being very approachable and are available at a moment’s notice.

There have also been some personal milestones achieved during this short while as I got to be Mr. Fresher of Marketing department 2016 and also the topper of Trimester 1. 

These accolades give me immense joy as it motivates me to keep going forward with the same enthusiasm. I look forward to my remaining time here as I know it will be filled with experiences and memories.

I intend to come out of here as a better person which can add greater value to the society and I think XISS gives me the right platform for the same. It also gives me an excellent launching pad to start my career and make it big in the long run. After all the institute, the faculty and your classmates can help you with the launch but navigating the space shuttle to the moon is your job.

My #XISSRanchi Viewpoint

by Ms. Sushmita Bajpai

Department of Human Resource Management (2016-2018)

The corporate world fascinated my young mind and it has become even more intriguing now that I have taken my initial steps towards what was once a far-off vision. I believe that being associated with XISS helped me in realizing my dreams by providing me with the necessary skills and environment for industry aligned growth. I have seen an overwhelming difference in the personality of students who have been associated with this institution, and thus I am assured that this college will help me in carving out a respectable career in the dynamic corporate environment.

There isn’t a better feeling in this world than knowing that you made a positive difference in someone else’s life. XISS believes in creating professionals with a difference. The social work gives the students this edge by strengthening the human values in us. I am currently teaching at a Blind School, as a part of this programme. The change in my thought process and value system, due to this programme, is massive.

Coming here has changed me into an independent woman, right from managing everyday chores to my responsibilities at the institution. Be it regular classroom assignments, social work, or the various clubs that function here, a balance has to be maintained which makes life enjoyable/interesting and challenging at the same time.
