Being Part of History...

Being part of a 150 year old institution, itself gave me goosebumps when I got admission in Wilson College of Mumbai. Initially when I got through, the first feeling that came in my mind was that college has witnessed so many legends, some of whom even are respectable citizen of this Mumbai city, some even decide the economics of India.



Infact the college is even older then the Mumbai University, standing tall in front of the Arabian Sea in Mumbai, college has faced several tides of up's & down and still is considered one of the most respectable college of Mumbai.
My 3 years in Wilson taught me several things, the more I came to know about it, I felt the less I know about it. The college library, hall, campus, stone structured building, labs all give you a nostalgic feeling of the place. It indeed builds you up & makes you a part of it. Probably the only college in Mumbai that attracts students from all over India, from Kashmir to down south & from Assam, Manipur as well. This itself teaches you about the different cultures of India & the way they think. This indeed adds to the college feathers.
I still remember an incident when my friend & me were chatting in the college hall after a college fest managed by our class had come to an end, all we could discuss is how for 150 years this institution has held so many events & today we also are a part of a age old history. It indeed was a moment that I can cherish for my entire life.

Though it wasnt' a good act to do but on the last day of our college all we friends wrote our names on the last bench where we friends use to sit, further strengthing our stand in this historic college which builds future of students not only to develop themselves but also the society & nation at large.
Hence I say the more I have explored this college land, the less I know about it.
