The Sri Sathya Sai International Centre for Sports was transformed into a venue of reverence as Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning hosted a heartfelt felicitation ceremony for 19 esteemed faculty members who superannuated from SSSIHL between 2018 and now, on Sunday, Oct 6, 2024. These distinguished educators, hailing from diverse departments and across the campuses of the Institute, were honoured for their decades of dedicated service and selfless contribution to the institute’s mission.
Imbued with warmth and gratitude, the gathering celebrated the faculty for their academic excellence and their profound impact on students’ lives. University officials, students, and colleagues came together to pay tribute to these individuals who nurtured intellectual growth and character development, in line with the university’s values.
Heartfelt speeches by a student of the Anantapur Campus and a faculty member of the Brindavan Campus reflected on the unwavering dedication, love for students, and lifelong commitment these educators had shown. Each teacher was invited to be seated on the stage by turn, and his/her contributions in all the years of service were appreciated. The teacher was then honoured with a shawl and presented with a memento and citation, symbolizing the university’s deep appreciation for their invaluable contributions, making it a memorable and inspiring occasion.
