The BU Asia Alumni Festival That Never Ends .
Having too much fun
The inspiration for this Website came from loyal BU Asia Alumni who gauge so much effort towards progress and stronger ties of our group. Their passion for our alma mater and their desire to strengthen our alumni group resulted in the first International pan-Asian BU event in Seoul Korea. It was the first event of its kind by a higher education alumni group and we are still the only University in the World to hold annual Pan-Asian gatherings. Today, with the addition of specialized International events to add to our annual festivals, the BU Asia Alumni Association is continuing to flourish.
Festival Holidays
I have participated in three International events thus far and I have already marked my calendar for our next International festival in Bangkok. I don't need to explain to the loyal members of our Alumni Association how much fun our festivals can be. Personally, I've made up my mind to go to all of our future annual events as family holidays. For those of you who either do not know about our annual events or haven't considered attending yet, I urge you to come back to our website often and check out our bulletin boards. With festivals in Seoul, Hong Kong, Beijing and Bangkok, our host cities are some of the greatest travel destinations in the World and our host Alumni always seem to plan some great weekends. More importantly, use the bulletin board to connect with your fellow alumni. Get back in touch with your classmates and make new friends. To me, it's the "never ending" Alumni Festival.
Remember walking up and down Commonwealth Ave.?
The Interactive Website
Our festivals are fun and highly successful because so many of us participate. It's my hope that this website can help us all to strengthen our relationships through better communications as well as foster new friends by introducing more people to our Asia Alumni Association. This website consists of two different sections. First, the home page you are looking at now is part of our static section where we will post our most important and interesting articles and news. Eventually, we will create tabs on the home page so that we can easily find the archived articles.
The second section that can be opened up with the “board index” button on the top left corner of this page is an interactive bulletin board . This of course is what I consider to be the "meat" of this website because it is comprised of your participation. Go ahead and register! Post your thoughts, news, and respond to others. I look forward to seeing you there.
