since its inception each and every member of the Unity
Family has been endeavouring ceaselessly with a spirit of
dedication to maintain the reputation of the college and to
raise it, to even greater heights. The year 2013-14 has been
like a voyage in space and time on waves and ripples bringing
in many much needed changes and also unfurling the
multidimensional talents of the students.
Decentralization and shared responsibility in the
management of academics and discipline has been initiated
by sharing responsibilities not only with the Vice Principal and Senior Teachers but also by
appointing various committees and section supervisors for synchronizing the teaching and
day to day activities of the College. In academics and co-curricular activities, new vigour and
enthusiasm have been instilled among students, particularly boys, with right ambition and a
keen desire to achieve and ascend even greater heights. The whole atmosphere today
bubbles with healthy competitive spirit and zest.
Like every year, this year too, the College banner flew high with the resounding success of
many students of Class X and XII students in the Board Examination.
This year witnessed two significant happenings firstly 'Zest Fest'- an Inter-School literary
festival which saw the participation of most prominent schools from Lucknow, secondly the
introduction of Tata Class Edge Teaching System to make the students abreast of the latest
trends in teaching technology, and also to make class room learning more interactive,
classrooms were digitalized with interactive boards and LCD projectors.
Apart from competitive range of Inter-School and Inter-House activities the school resounded
with some very coveted events like Sports Day and Art Craft and Science Exhibition to channel
the artistic and creative inclination of the students. Career Conference and workshops for
Class IX-XII were also organized, to impart information on different careers, along with future
prospects. Life skills workshops motivational lectures and Seminars are also an important
feature of the calendar bringing in ideas from experts in various fields, with this aim in view the college invited eminent personalities like Mr. Zain Naqi, Maulana Zaqi Baqri from Canada
to enlighten the students on various issues. As an effort towards Global exposure the college
also invited Mr. Satoshi Hata, General Manager, Ritsumeikan India Office, New Delhi.
This year the college also bade farewell to one of its most eminent and dedicated Senior
teachers Mrs. Rashmi Sinha who retired after 17 years of distinguished service to the College.
We wish her all the best for her future.Over all the academic year 2013-14 proved to be an eventful year for all of us. Every
achievement is the result of teamwork, and the presentation will be incomplete without the
impression of my heartfelt gratitude to all those whose ardent efforts and hard work has made
the years' work possible. Therefore I acknowledge and thank all my staff and students, our
parents, and the College Managing Committee under the guardianship of Founder Chairman
Dr. S. Kalbe Sadiq for cooperating with me and in guiding the school on its onward march to
success. As we promise to strive harder in the new academic year.
I remember those oft
–quoted lines of Rudyard Kipling
“ If you can fill the unforgiving minute
with sixty seconds worth of distance run.
Yours is the earth and everything that is in it.”
We also promise to do the same in the coming years. I hope and pray that Unity College may
ever remain the beacon of light, guiding and inspiring all in the field of education.
May God bless us all.
