Urvashi Butalia has all good things to say about her college, Miranda House. Also, she is not surprised that the college secured rank 1 yet again. Miranda House was open to students from all backgrounds with a range of subjects even in early 70s. But, several other women colleges lacked the advanced facilities present here. Also, this college was the first to join DUSU while other women colleges were still skeptical about it. Butalia highlights that Miranda is culturally very rich, especially in theatre and music.

Shovana Narayan, Kathak exponent:
She went to Miranda in the 1960s and has very fond college memories. Also, she asserts that due to a limited number of girls’ colleges, she didn’t have much of a choice. But, Miranda at that time had the best faculty and reputation as well. So, the cafeteria, the bunking, and spending time with the hostellers are all her cherished memories.
