In his convocation day address at the SSM College of

but tolerate them.
The students could, rather should, consider the criticism if
it had validity, else ignore it. And, the students should use
those criticisms that had validity to correct themselves. Dr.

follow rules, and later if you find them to be wrong, devise
one, if you can." He also counselled students to find a
good balance between professional and family life. It was the
key to success, he emphasised. As regards the University, he
said it was taking all possible steps to modify the curricula
to meet industry needs and also reflect latest technological
developments. Chairman of SSM group of education institutions
M. S. Mathivanan said the present generation of students had
greater strength, intelligence and skill to compete globally
than any other in the past.
