Brief Description of the event:
Students, whether active, or as alumni’s, are an essential part of educational institutions. As alumni, who pass out, and encounter the world before them, they represent the teachings and values of the institutions and teachers they have learnt from.

Students were asked to share their college experiences, and they recollected, how their experiences as students of History, have helped them in their respective future endeavors. Students performed musical performances. The meet concluded with a short video, compiled by the teachers, showing students journey as students.

Outcome of the event: Students have illustrated, how their journey as history students, have aided some of them to continue pursuing history in their masters, while for others it has encouraged them to actively, contribute to the society. Students left the event, carrying a promise that teachers are always hopeful of them to update them, of any new developments in their professional careers.
