A letter To The Vice-Chancellor Who Understood My Depression And Supported Me

Dear Sir ,

At the onset, I would like to inform you that the last few months have been quite depressing for me. Due to some problems in college and the constant defamations that I faced at the university I locked myself in my shell. A lot of questions ran through my head like what is happening, why and how did this happen. My best friends and some of my professors stopped talking to me leaving me to believe that this university might not be the place for me. I questioned my belief in the system of treating everyone as equal. I might be wrong, but many times I felt discriminated against by a lot of people merely because I was a post-graduate Diploma student.

Sir, it was my dream to study in West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences, just like everyone else. When I got admitted here, it was like a dream come true. But a few months into college I experienced reality. The college had wonderful infrastructure, great and helpful people, and with good ambience. But I also suffered discrimination by a lot of people whom I used to respect a lot. I questioned myself as to when I was equally qualified, equally capable, why was I not considered good enough.My world came crashing down. I started losing confidence in myself and began to question my faith in myself. I became disturbed due to which I was labelled as a “mentally disturbed student “. Just when I was picking myself up, I again got back into the circle of depression.

But today after two months I am fine. I want to say thank you, sir, for not taking action against me when I misbehaved and I was not in my senses.I know I have made mistakes but thank you for understanding that its a human tendency to make mistakes and giving me a chance to rectify my mistakes. Thank you, sir, for being an impartial administrator. Thank you, sir, for not coming to any conclusion without knowing my side of the story. Thank you because I can now go to college with my head held high. Thank you, sir, for making me realise how a leader, an administrator should be.

Regards,

A grateful student
