IIT MADRAS CELEBRATES GOLDEN JUBILEE ALUMNI DAY

A “Golden Jubilee Alumni Day” has been scheduled by IIT Madras on December 26th , 2009.This first-ever gathering of all IITM alumni, across batches and branches, is intended as a celebration of their close and long-lasting relationship with the Alma mater. More than 32,000 students, UG and PG, have graduated from IIT Madras over the past 50 years.

Thousands of alumni of IIT Madras are expected to participate in the Institute’s ‘Golden Jubilee Alumni Day’ on December 26. The Institute, which is set to complete 50 years, is joining hands with three alumni associations to make the event ‘a blast to celebrate the past, present and future’.

A donor wall of fame to commemorate the generous contributions of illustrious alumni will be unveiled in the evening on that day at the SAC Auditorium on campus. Among the other programmes planned are a quiz on the history of IIT-M, a presentation about the Institute by its Director and Deans, and a presentation by the President of the Alumni Association.

Do stay in touch for more information that I propose to keep adding on as the day nears. May I also request all IIT - M Alumni to share this information with all your former classmates and friends and request them to pass this on to other friends of theirs as well so that we make this event which is basically your event a great success.
