-
The School of Business and Management (MBA) hosted the Annual Alumina Meet 2022 in a digital environment on February 26th from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM for Seniors and Juniors at CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus.
 

The event started with two Alumni hosts, Rubin and Sonal, who actively conducted this event. The event began at 6.00 PM with the introduction of CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus. The video represented the university in its totality, students' educational and experiential journey, the scope for new learning, and the scenic beauty of Lavasa. This was followed by a cultural prayer dance. Both the hosts then called upon Dr Fr Jossy P George (Director) to address the first virtual alumni meet. 


Father appreciated the alumni for their time and effort. He especially thanked the executive alumni team for working together to succeed in this event. He spoke about how the alumni have effectively contributed to the university's current growth and well-being, supported placements, and facilitated internships opportunities. Father also mentioned that seeing the students excelling brings back happy memories and smiles.


Sonal and Rubin then addressed the entire audience. They spoke about how they have seen everything from two different lenses. As students and as alumni, as juniors, and as seniors. New students are a new Campus because they bring something new when they enter. CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus is a place for both great memories and great experiences. A video was played, which consisted of photographs of all the batches of students from 2014. For many, it was a walk down the memory lane towards new memories and the family of Christites is what the video said.


One alumnus from every batch addressed the audience. From the first batch, Sanjit said we, as alumni, want to contribute to our alma mater actively. They had a planned proposal for the upcoming academic years like Best Ongoing Student Award, Mock interviews for Final year students, Industry expertise initiatives, buddy connect programs, and active alumni participation in college events. He mentioned that the university ensures that each student is equipped with a higher level of industry preparedness in their glorious journey at CHRIST. He said that Dr Fr Jossy and the team are working hard towards an unparalleled epitome of the education centre. He also requested Father that alumni should have access to the campus offline and on platforms online.


The host introduced Dr Fr Arun Antony (Academic Coordinator) and called him to address the crowd. Fr Arun talked about warmth and togetherness and how much it matters for a university. He appreciated the alumni, thanked all the batches, and applauded their spirit and teamwork. Next was a funny Q/A session which led to many hilarious answers and enlightened everyone’s mood. The host introduced Dr Becky Mary Thomas (HoD) called her to address the crowd. She thanked each and everyone for their support and coordination. Then, our Placement Coordinator, Prof Shownu Winstington, said that even though he is relatively new to the system, this meeting gave him goosebumps because of the overwhelming alumni-alma mater relationship & atmosphere. He mentioned that though the meeting is on a virtual platform, the feelings are real. He appreciated the Alumni reaching new heights from Lavasa to the global business world. He thanked all the students too.


All students from various batches spoke about their personal experiences and professional growth and gave credit to CHRIST, the management and faculty members. The virtual meet ended with the CHRIST Anthem. Everyone thanked the alumni for taking time from their busy schedules to be present for this meet, and some alumni members were going to connect online to catch up after a long time and all these years.


The Annual Alumni Meet 2022 was meticulously planned and professionally executed by the Alumni in the Christites spirit, and it certainly would not have been possible without the involvement of Alumni Executive Committee members of School of Business and Management (MBA), CHRIST (Deemed to be University) Pune Lavasa & staff.
