I have a bitter-and-sweet relationship with campus.

Placements: As a student of Xavier's, I can confidently share an honest overview of the placement and internship opportunities given to us in the law department are quite low in comparison to other departments in our college. Overall the training and placement cell was active and is providing valuable support in resume building and coordinating with recruiters.

Be cautious of your attendance at SXUK otherwise a good college for your media career.
