IIM Shillong alumni gathered to launch ‘Melange 2022’, a two-day reunion that took place on Saturday and Sunday.
The event was organised by the alumni committee, with graduates across batches gathered to celebrate and remember their time as students at IIM Shillong, as well as to honour long-lasting friendships. Many people recounted their entrepreneurial and corporate journeys, while basking in nostalgia.
While the institute, in past years, held annual reunions in different cities, this time IIM Shillong hosted the meet at the institute’s old campus in Nongthymmai.
Professor DP Goyal, the IIM Shillong Director, cherished the nostalgic moment while welcoming the alumni. He stated that students are the heart of the institute and will remain so even after their graduation and represent the institute everywhere they go.
“IIM Shillong is a family, it values each stakeholder’s contribution to the institute equally. As alumni, students play an important role in this because they add value to the institute by fusing their professional experiences and contributing to the growth of the institute,” Goyal said.
A special cultural evening was organised for the alumni at the Orchid Resort at Mawkasiang where the alumni once again mingled with their batchmates, the faculty and other alumni.
