Editorial

This month’s issue was timed to coincide with what is hoped to be the premier event on the alumni calendar in future years: The Alumni Student Conclave. This event was held on the 6th of September, 2008. Attended by about 80 alumni, and about 250 students, the event proved to have caught the mood of the moment and carried itself off very well indeed.

I have seen a question like this pop up in various IIT forums. I have tried to address our activities in the quarterly issues of Journeys. I will do so again in this issue and also distribute this via all vehicles so this gets wide distribution. This will be more detailed than usual. Much of our work has been done in the background and we have not indulged in any email traffic or fanned any flames of controversy other than the ones caused by our going about our business very quietly.
