123 Kolkata: For the first time, Jadavpur University is going to celebrate the first alumni day on January 4 to strengthen the bond between the university and its alumni.
Pro-VC Amitava Datta said, "The important information regarding the celebration, like the mode of registration and programme schedule, will be available on the university's current website. We plan to launch a separate website on the day of the celebration to acknowledge the contributions of the alumni and also to regularly update it to communicate various news and achievements of the university and its alumni. This will help project the requirements of the university and its students so that we can pursue more activities vigorously."
Earlier, JU had formed an alumni cell to strengthen ties with former students across the world. "Giving back to the alma mater remains a matter of pride for all the alumni. JU has a large pool of illustrious alumni spread over the entire world. Many of them are members of the various alumni associations and alumni chapters formed in different parts of the country and abroad. Over the years, many of the alumni came forward to give back to the university. Their support is regularly utilised to support student needs during the pandemic, install a number of equipment to improve laboratory facilities, create digital content based on literary classics, set up advanced laboratories, improve hostel infrastructure, and more," said Datta.
