RE: SJA Alumni (US) Re-Union 2012 | Planning Phase

[Vinod Negi]

Thanks Sid. Very happy to see the New Englanders stepping forward and taking the initiative.

 

As I was saying.. the younger Alumni must take on the responsibilities of taking this forward as networking should be valuable to those who are starting or building a career. Some of us are past that mark though I always enjoy meeting Josephites anywhere, anytime.  The good part is that we are moving this reunion around to different cities and not repeating the venue. This, I feel is a very healthy practice and we should have host committees in all these places. I urge all those copied in this email to please forward it to as many Josephites as you know so we can reach out to a large number residing in the USA, Canada and even Mexico.

 

I am game for June and even July. So you can bank on me to be there and provide all assistance and guidance wherever necessary. If we have a firm date, we can invite some good speakers and business networkers to attend.

 

It would be extremely gratifying to see a bunch of at least 25 plus Josephites in Boston, MA in 2012!!!!!!

 

Best wishes and warm regards,

 

Vinod S Negi

Laborare Est Orare  उद्ध्यामो ही परा पूजा 

Dear Josephites,

Continuing with the tradition of having an SJA Alumni (US) Re-union, with your support and wishes, I would like to initiate the discussion and scheduling for the 2012 event.
Vinod and Shobit have in their efforts in the last couple of years, brought many of us together, connected us for eternity and created an umbrella for the Josephites in North America. Hoping to have a wider reception and attendance this time, I propose / suggest the following 

a) Venue
Since we are looking for a new venue every year, I suggest Boston, MA and let the Bostonians welcome you in true New England style 
However, having the venue on or closer to where the majority attending are, is a good choice too. The aim is to have maximum attendance, location is secondary.

b) Dates
Although summer may be the best time for people with kids vacation, this is flexible on the dates when maximum people are able to attend
- 23rd June 2012
- 21st July 2012
- any other dates upto August 2012

Please reply with your comments / suggestions and what we need to add to the Agenda to make this a better experience ( I know Vinod has some great ideas he told me about)

Humbly yours,

PS - Please copy any Josephites in the area (or visiting US this year) you are aware of, not already in the list and in case you need to change / remove your email from this list, send me a note

Hi Sid,

Thanks for taking the initiative with the SJA Alumni Reunion this time.

Regarding your suggestions:

1. Venue - Boston would be the ideal destination after the reunions in Washington DC and New York. Unless other alumni members feel otherwise I am fine with Boston as the venue.

2. Dates - Any weekend except 7th-8th July I am free to attend. If given a preference, July and August are more suitable for me than June.

Hope to get more responses from everyone. Will definitely spread the word.

Regards,

Vinayak Mathur

The composition of schools is much different than colleges. Colleges can handle such an intense focus in excelling in one particular subject or activity.

 

Schools – focuses on all round growth of a child.. studies – includes all subject, sciences, maths, algebra, trigonometry, geometry, English – grammar and literature, Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu, Sanskrit etc.. Sports - various disciplines within sports!!! I doubt one can focus on one particular subject or activity.  But the thought is intriguing – can it be done? not so sure.

 

My 0.02 cents!!
