As I sat down on this lazy Sunday, I couldn't help but feel grateful for having a day off from work. Little did I know that the day had something in store for me, something that brought back memories of my college days.
I received a call from a junior who had recently joined my college, inviting me to an alumni meet in July. It was heartwarming to hear from someone who belonged to the same institution that I had passed out from, and it brought back fond memories of my college life.
College life is undoubtedly one of the best times of a person's life, and being a part of an alumni association helps in keeping those memories alive.
It's an opportunity to catch up with old friends, make new ones and share experiences from the time spent in college. For me, being invited to the alumni meet was a chance to relive those memories, meet my juniors, and reminisce about the good old days.
Apart from the nostalgia, alumni meets are also a great way to network professionally.
As the saying goes, "it's not what you know, but who you know." Being a part of an alumni association can provide access to a network of like-minded individuals, which can lead to career opportunities or collaborations in the future.
Furthermore, being a part of an alumni association can also provide opportunities for giving back to the institution that shaped us into who we are today.
We can contribute in various ways, such as mentoring juniors, sharing our knowledge and expertise, or even supporting the institution financially.
So, being invited to an alumni meet has brought back memories of my college days and has given me something to look forward to in the coming months.
It's a chance to relive those moments, network with like-minded individuals, and give back to the institution that helped shape me into who I am today. I am grateful for this opportunity and excited to be a part of the alumni association.
