Media careers are all
about voicing one's opinion - CMAC Discussion
Forum gives an early opportunity to do so. The forum
is a platform for debate and discussion, for expressing
students' views on current and socially relevant issues. It
aims to keep the students updated on issues and to provide
students with an opportunity to practice in the skills of
making presentation, public speaking, and confidence
building. The forum started with in-house faculty and other
staff-members sitting in and giving students feedback on
both content and presentation. The topics of discussions
were:

Media hype and the prince case |
| 2. |

of India. |
| 3. |

Naxalism |
As the discussion forum gained momentum, the college has
started calling one guest, an expert on the topic, to listen
to the students' presentations and then conclude the topic
with a lecture on the same issue to enhance their knowledge.
On September 26, the topic of discussion was "
Pesticides in food and toys" the guest invited was Mr.
