Dr.Abdulkader Kulam, an alumnus from the first batch of our college writes in
Dear Dr. Bruno:
I have done my best @ home scanning these precious photos.
Please let your readers know that these photos are “40+ years old” and withstood the ravage of time. In fact 1965 photo looks better than the 1967.
We started our First MBBS in St. Xavier’s College thus we missed girls in our 1965 photo, they studied in Sara Tucker College. From 1966 onwards we became co-educated at our current location and appeared together ever since.
Please acknowledge my name in your web pages under these photos because my living classmates and faculties may wonder who in the world preserved all these photos. They will certainly travel through their memory lanes if they come across your pages.
My name was K.M. Abdulkader, wears a bow tie 3rd from left, second row from top in 1965 photo. I am at 6th from the left, second row from the top in 1967 photo.
I will leave some history in your web pages what was our days like then once you publish these photos. I may send these two attachments separately in case of any difficulty.
Regards,
Abdulkader Kulam The photos are given at the top of the postLabels: 1965to1971_Batch, Alumni_Messages, Batch_Photo, Overseas

This is Dr.Kulam again.
During early years of our live in the men's hostel the water we were drinking from the tap was of a hard variety, with too much mineral contents I guess. Within few months of our moving into the hostel almost every one of us went through what we call an "acute urinary irritation", a severe pain during micturition.
Soon we all learned, of course by trial and error, the best way to relive the symptom is to drink more of the same hard water which caused our symptoms. But when we drank more until we can not consume any more, it diuressed the heck out of our water balance and soon we will be relieved of our symptoms with in few hours.
