People say, our examination procedure is very difficult. If we wanted, we could simplify the examination system and go with the otherwise flow. We want our graduates to be fully prepared to face the challenge of time. We have made it difficult to develop quality, talented graduates.? He also said, ?You have to be a good human being along with being a good student. The true path should be taken to ensure the country is taken forward. Remember, abundance does not make people happy. Happiness must be created by awakening one's conscience, through self-purification.? Brigadier General (Retd.) Jubayer Siddique said, ?Now it is a very crucial time for you. You have to make the right decisions about taking admission into modern and standard institutions for higher education.? Abu Jayed Chowdhury Rahi, a member of Bangladesh National Cricket Team and a student in the Business Administration Department of the University also attended the ceremony. He said in his speech, ?I am proud of being a student of Metropolitan University. Because it is one of the best universities in the country. If for some reason I feel depressed, I come to the campus, and spend time. Those who have passed the HSC will not go the wrong path if they feel depressed. Rather you will focus on spending time with family, coming to campus, attend class and spend time with classmates. There is no alternative to hard work in life. Hard work will bring success.? Nusrat Haque Mila and Mahidul Haque Mahi spoke on behalf of the students. The Deans of all schools, Heads of the Departments, faculty members of all departments and officials of the University attended the ceremony.
