My first day at AKGEC was quite the experience. It started off as a regular day until the Discipline Committee, or DCs as we call them, came to our first-year-only hostel to take us to class. We all lined up, with fresh faces among us, while seniors stood by counting us. We had to learn some rules, like saying Jai Hind to everyone we met, because they might be seniors or faculty. You'll spot your batchmates because they'll be the ones in fully tucked-in, long-sleeved shirts until the Freshers' Party.
We were led to our classes, grouped with others from our branch, all unfamiliar faces. Seniors came in and had us do silly things like introducing ourselves to each of them and asking their names. I still don't get the point of that—it's not like we needed to know every senior's name.
On my first day at AKGEC, I was clueless about the location of the first-year hostel. So, I approached a senior and asked, "Bhaiya, where is the first-year hostel?" He looked at me for a couple of minutes and then instructed, "Call me sir, and make sure to greet everyone first." After greeting them, I headed towards the hostel.
Starting my journey at AKGEC felt like stepping into a whole new world. It was exactly how I imagined it would be. AKGEC is fantastic when it comes to teachers, academics, resources, and even the canteens. The college offers great industrial lab setups for hands-on training that aligns with industry needs. The faculty members are genuinely supportive. You should definitely check out the college. Wishing you all the best!
