2. • With folded hands Satsriakal.
• The Chief Guest (VC) and representatives, the Registrar of the
University, The Chairman of USM, All Deans of faculty of the
University, All faculty members, the Alumni, fellow students, (all
protocol observed) ladies and gentlemen.
• I listened with keen interest the speech by the Vice Chancellor.
• I was encouraged as it is augers so well with the message that I
am just about to present to you in an imagery creation.
• It’s a message about our capacity, our capabilities, our abilities,
a message of action, our potential, about unity and a message
of oneness, love, harmony, peace, unity and togetherness.
• Like my African-Malawi proverb, “to go far, go together.”

3. • I have observed that like in the queuing theory, people come to
Kurukshetra university, they stay here and they leave.
• The Alumni with us today, they came, they stayed here and they
left.
• We all came, we are here today but we shall soon or later
leave.
• Yet there is ONLY one that has stayed for ages and will remain
forever and that’s our Mother University School of Management
(USM)
• Her desire is what I present to you today as she calls us to USM,
prepare us all here and sends us to the world - That we may go
together!

4. It’s not a riksha, a scooter
neither a train on the rail
ridges enroute to Mumbai.
It’s me, rather,
Your beloved mother, USM.
From the heart of Bharat,
In the state of Haryana
And the land of the
Mahabharata,
Herewith, my message to
you.

5. With all the necessary
information,
Innovation and motivation,
I have prepared you in wisdom,
To face the enemy of mankind:
-hunger, disease, hatred,
discrimination and poverty
itself.

6. Each and every generation of
academicians,
Has been called to bear
testimony.
Not as a call to show grades and
certificates,
Although grades and certificates
we need,
But as a call to bring to the
World
-economic, social, political and
financial transformation
-and ensure equity, fairness and
justice.

7. Beloved students,
members of faculty and
alumnus.
The context of your million
dollar question should be;
Not to Ask what USM should
do for you,
But, rather,
To ask what you can do for
and on behalf of USM.

8. I have taught you from decades
Now for ages,
HOW to think,
But (Leykin), discover for yourself WHAT to think.
For always remember, the behavior of organizations and our
philosophy;
“There is no single best solution
To the diverse problems.
Each situation is unique,
And deserves a special solution”

9. If all of you students were one,
what a great student you would be?
If all the faculty members were one,
what a great faculty USM would
have?
AND If all the alumni were one,
what a great alumnus USM would
be proud of?
NOW, if the great student, combined
forces with the great faculty and
the great alumnus,
What a great change, impact and
breakthrough USM would bring to
our world?

12. The global economic paralysis,
The financial crisis,
Lack of transparency and
accountability,
The Human Resource &
Management myopia,
In-efficiency and in-effectiveness,
The marketing maladé,

discrimination, hunger, poverty
and disease,
My beloved, Go! Go! Go!
