Informal Interaction at IILM for Current Students and Alumni
IILM UBS organized an informal interaction on 22nd July 2010 for its students where invitations were extended to the alumni, current students and to the students who have taken admission in the current academic year.
The venue for the interaction was our newly renovated cafeteria on the terrace. A college cafeteria is always the hub of student activities and it is the same here at IILM. Our renovated IILM Terrace Cafe now wears a completely new and contemporary look. We wanted our students to share and enjoy with us this new addition.
The invitations were accepted with a great deal of alacrity from most of the students and the rejections came with a lot of regret!
The alumni, current students and the new admissions joined us for a fun filled afternoon. After the round of introductions, the students involved themselves with a newspaper activity which is actually a team building exercise. The students, divided into groups, had to construct a sturdy bridge (which could actually hold a laptop!), with a sheaf of newspapers. The task seemed pretty impossible, but to our surprise and amazement, the groups did come up with fairly strong bridges which could actually hold a laptop!!
Over beverages and refreshment, thereafter, the students informally interacted and got to know each other. The alumni found it the perfect opportunity to bond with their faculty and were happy to offer pearls of wisdom to the incoming batch.
The afternoon was all about a warm homecoming for the alumni and a refreshing interaction for the incoming batch with the current students and faculty.
