Jamshedpur, June 11: Xavier School of Management (XLRI) Jamshedpur welcomed the new batch of students for the new academic year 2024-26.

Prof. Sanjay Patro (Dean of Academics, XLRI) delivered the welcome address. Fr. Donald D’Silva SJ (Dean A&F, XLRI) recited the prayer after which all the students of the new academic year 2024-26 were introduced to the professors of the Jamshedpur XLRI campus.
Fr. S Geroge, director of XLRI addressed the gathering and said, “I welcome you all to the XLRI family. Each one of you is here
purely on your merit, nothing else. You’ve reached the peak but there are other hills you’ll have to climb. Make sure you make the most of the opportunities at XLRI. When you succeed, XLRI succeeds. And when you fail, we fail. Your every action brings glory to XLRI.”
The academic inaugural event was then followed by an ice-breaking event in which all the students had participated and several games and related activities were conducted.
The two-hour event was refreshing and made all the students interact comfortably with each other.
The new students were then taken through a special orientation programme drawn up by XLRI to
update their knowledge before regular classes commenced.
