13. What our friends have to say
Keep up the effort. You will always find people to question your
intentions. Those people don’ t really matter. Those who matter will
applaud your efforts, so keep up the good work. I cant explain the joy
of seeing the old faces. All said and done, I cant deny the contribution
of those 4 years in my life and career.
Vijay Jaiswal (1997-2001)
Great deeds to take such initiatives, I think volunteering this initiative
should be a step towards making a healthy relationship towards
HCSTians.

14. What our friends have to say
Thanks for inviting me for alumni meet which will be held on 17th Dec. in
Bangalore. Yes, this is really fantastic & positive direction with great
attitude to reunion of all HCST alumni. I am excited to join alumni
meet but unfortunately will not available in person due to some time
constraints in dec. month. My best wishes to you & all of the
HiCoStians coming over with Great Happy New year 2012.
Alok Tyagi (1996-2000)
Its a great initiative, this is what we have really missed. This inspires me
to arrange a formal reunion for the HiCoSTians in US. I would like to
say thanks for such an initiative. Keep up the good work.

15. What our friends have to say
I always remember the time spent in my college so much. The kind of moments I shared with
some of my best buddies were truly the most innocent days of my life, in fact in everyone’s life.
May be the tedious office hours, the monotonous behavior and lifestyle and the cold shoulders
even amongst so-called best mates is allowing us to remember the innocent times of the past,
times which would NEVER come back ever again!
College days- What can be said about them? To add cherry on the cake in my memories, I
remember a text messages on my mobile. It said…
God TO Human: I will grant you ONE wish!
Human: Okay Give back my college days!
God: I said I will grant “WISH” not “HEAVEN”
Thanks to Akash and team for the effort to make HiCoSTianS ( HCST reunion). They really did a
wonderful job by initiating these events.
I wish I could have join this event but unfortunately I am sitting very far from this place and unable
to attend this event. I wish, I will join next Reunion event.
I Wish all of you happy holidays and happy new year.
Thanks for remembering me.
