College Photo Day 2022

The College Photo Day 2022, under the stringent social distancing policy of the government during the fifth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, was replaced with two special arrangements. To allow for a safe yet celebratory setting for the sixth graduating class to reminisce about their College life, first of all, a physical backdrop was set up in the College Piazza for the graduating students to take photos from 16 May 2022 onwards. Members of the graduating class came back to take photos after renting their graduation gowns.
