Are COEPians very poor, they don't care, greedy or just lazy (or in the worst case all of this)?

Hi Batch mates,

Hope this email finds you well.

During the "Felicitation as ‘COEP Abhimaan’" ceremony, we were fortunate to "meet" some of our fellow COEPians who have made us proud. Knowing the incoming talent pool COEP gets (or atleast used to get during our times), I still wonder why the percentage of high achievers like Ashish Kulkarni is very low. There are multiple reasons that I can think of but one thing I definitely see is lack of collaboration, a sense of community. COEP Alumni association is a good start. However what is the point if it is all talk and no action?

Can't we, at least one time, donate the equivalent of at least about 5000 INR /200 US$ (yes I can do the math even though I got 40 in M1 :), to support the current COEP students who might have financial challenges? I have done my part and urge you to do yours. I usually donate anonymously but ... 

I know we are very generous, it is just that habit of doing last minute submissions that is delaying you, please act now, the link is below.

PS - That picture is just from a few years ago, that is one advantage of being generous, you get good sleep! 

Thanks,

Paresh
