“You should keep in mind that there is nothing more satisfying than to be able to do some good for others voluntarily.''
Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid was present during the event as the chair while University Grant Commission (UGC) Chairman Prof Abdul Mannan spoke as the special guest.

Dr Jahan’s first pointer for the graduates reminded them that success is inextricable from effort. “You should remember the sky is the limit, but you must strive hard to realize your dream. You must also remember that every challenge in life is also an opportunity to find your own inner strength and potential.''
The distinguished fellow of CPD and former Columbia University professor said the above during the university’s second convocation which was held at the Krishibid Institution, Bangladesh on Sunday.
Dr Jahan provided five additional recommendations to the students to inspire them to persevere in spite of obstacles and make the world a better place:
“Do not let worries about social approval hold you back from pursuing your dreams. If you succeed in breaking unjust barriers you will find others will follow your footsteps. And soon the society’s attitude will also change. You will be appreciated and celebrated as role models.
''You have to overcome social prejudices and obstacles with the support of your family, teachers, and bosses in your workplace.
