BRAC University organized a cultural program and dinner at SKS Convention Halls on 26 August as a token of gratitude towards the 400 or so students who volunteered to organize its 15th Convocation.
The 15th Convocation was organized on 20 March 2023 at Bangabandhu Bangladesh-China Friendship Exhibition Center. A total of 4,889 students received degrees while 31 gold medals were awarded in various categories in this convocation.
The volunteers worked for three days helping, among many other things, decorate the venue, setting up the seating arrangements, holding rehearsals, distributing food and certificates on the day of the event and managing traffic.
“As a token of our heartfelt gratitude, we are hosting a special event to honor and appreciate their contributions,” said Professor AFM Yusuf Haider, Chair of the 15th Convocation and Chairperson of the Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.
“The dedicated efforts and unwavering commitment of our volunteers have played a crucial role in making the 15th Convocation of BRAC University a grand success,” he said.
Addressing the “15th Convocation Volunteers' Appreciation Night” as chief guest, Pro Vice-Chancellor and Acting Vice-Chancellor Professor Syed Mahfuzul Aziz thanked the volunteers alongside the university’s faculty members and staff for successfully holding the convocation.
