8. IITDAA Silver Jubilee Reunion Batch 1982.


Dear Friends,

A Silver Jubilee Reunion comes once in a lifetime, and for the batch of '82, this is the year when we will come together again. This will be the opportunity to relive the five years of our youth - our formative years - our glorious past. We will not get another chance to meet so many of our batch-mates who were once an indivisible part of our lives. We hope to meet again the many friends of yesteryears and hope to recognize them after 25 years have gone by. As communicated earlier, the Silver Jubilee Event is being held from the 28th to 30th of December this year, 2006.

All 1982 graduates, PGs (BTech, MS, MTech, PhDs, etc) are invited along with their families.Families are an integral part of this event - they have to see what we have been talking to them about - with their own eyes. You can get your children and spouse to walk the corridors of your hostel and meet with the profs - specially the ones from whom you once kept a long distance. You can take time out to explore the examination halls where you once spent time looking at the ceiling or sideways since the answers to confounding questions were almost always found on other people's scribble sheets. You can do almost whatever you want back at IITD.

Please pull in all those with whom you are in touch, help them make up their minds. We need to make the best of this opportunity. The earlier batches enjoyed every bit of their bash and wanted more. Come and let's make this the best bash of our lives.Most of the details have already been worked out and the program is also given below.
