Here's why you are getting the error, actually you have mistakenly used colon at the wrong place, so here's the little change I have made to your code:

Date myOldDate = Date.newInstance(2021, 1, 1);
Date myTodayDate = date.today();
List<Student__c>studentList = new List <Student__c>();
studentList = [SELECT Student_Id__c, Name, Joining_Date__c FROM Student__c
              WHERE Joining_Date__c > :myOldDate AND Joining_Date__c <= :myTodayDate]; // Here's the error, you have to use the colon after the equals
 
I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark it as Best Answer.
Thanks and Regards,

hi hari,
your code is looking good but you committed a very minor mistake. you should have add colon(:) after (=).
just code and paste below code your issue will be resolved.
Date myOldDate = Date.newInstance(2021, 1, 1);
Date myTodayDate = date.today();
List<Student__c>studentList = new List <Student__c>();
studentList = [SELECT Student_Id__c, Name, Joining_Date__c FROM Student__c
              WHERE Joining_Date__c >: myOldDate AND Joining_Date__c <=: myTodayDate];

let me know by marking it as best answer.
Thank you
