Placements: The placement scenario of our college was not that good at our time. One of the main reasons was the recession, and that affected a lot of our time. Though at the end of the placement season, almost all the students had at least one job in their hands. The professors, who were the placement in-charge, was a bit reluctant about his job. His lack of enthusiasm might be a reason behind our poor placement. Only a few good companies came to the college.
