Dear IIMCians,
The Gujarat chapter members met on 27th October 2024 (Sunday) in Ahmedabad. This was the first get together after the annual meet that was held on 7th April. The members bonded over the delicious breakfast and shared some light moments. It was nice to see some of the members with their family. Besides fun and banter, some important points and ideas were discussed. And the following was decided:
1. The next get together of the Gujarat chapter is fixed for 15th December 2024. The tentative location is Polo Forest.
2. Request all the members to block this date in your calendar. The members present on 27th October are already in. Request all the remaining members to please note. Also, the idea is to have family join in this get together.The details will be shared soon.
3. Continuing with the Gujarat Run (initiated by Mr. Arvind and Ms. Rashmi), it was decided that the second Gujarat run will take place on 31st December 2024 and 1st January 2025. This Run may be undertaken from any location and hence the members may join from their respective base location. Details will follow soon.
4. It has been proposed and decided that the Gujarat chapter will send a request to our alma mater. The proposal is that IIMC should allow & open admission directly to second year of 2 years Masters for all the alumni of IIMC. The idea is this will help all the alumni interested to study and complete Masters in Mass Media. As of now, the alumni have to go to different Universities like Guru Jambheshwar University, Kurukshetra University.
5. Since this is our alma mater, the opportunity should be given to alumni to complete their Masters from our respected alma mater. This idea was proposed by Mr. Ujjaval Pratap and was strongly supported by all the members present.
6. We will work on the draft proposal for this and send it to the central Committee soon.
I look forward to seeing you all on the 15th of December.
Regards,
Shivendra Madhusudan
