In the first meeting on 29 October 2006, the association had discussed on following points:
1. There should be a formal ‘media cell’ in college, in order to promote the college in formal
and organized manner, with someone handling the PR work dedicatedly.
2. The association should seek help from its alumni for marketing the college, through use
of their PR network, especially of those who are in PR agencies. The Media and Alumni
activities should be strongly inter-related.
3. CBS alumni in various industries should be kept in contact on a continuing basis, so as to
mobilize their domain expertise for betterment of CBS and the Alumni Association.
4. College should promote itself, strongly either as CBS or SSCBS, along with its logo, to
remove any confusion, as part of its branding. CBS was the preferred choice of many.
5. There should be only one CBS community on Orkut, the social networking site, and it
should be leveraged to its maximum, to facilitate the CBS Alumni Association, to mobilize
the alumni and students. Except the one community with 1100 members, all others
should be removed.
6. Mr. Naresh Priyadarshi, one of the attendee members shall take care of the website of
the college, while Mr. Saurabh Wadhwa will help the students in framing the proposal for
the same, to include maximum features.
7. There should be a formal Alumni Body and members who are given various
responsibilities should be held accountable and they would present the reports of their
performance whenever the meeting is held.
8. There should be a change in the framework of the academic studies and summer
internships in the college, that is, internships should be of three months in any of the two
quarters viz., October to December or January to March, besides inculcating seriousness
and credibility among students while doing the live industry projects. (This is the model
adopted in engineering colleges) Meanwhile in May and June, students can undertake
many entrepreneurial and/or other courses of 10-15 days that will be conducted in
college only, facilitating students’ industry exposure.
9. There should be formal societies and committees in the college which should be
undertaking specialized functions, e.g., Finance Committee. However there should be no
special concessions or testimonials given to the students members in these committees,
to ensure commitment. All such committees should have regular meetings and there
should be a Committee Secretary and an associated faculty for each committee. Each
student should be the member of at least one committee.
10. The Alumni-Student Council (students coordinating the CBS Alumni Association) should
make a list of the good practices followed at the best B-schools of India, so that these
can be discussed and then implemented at CBS to streamline the process of reforms.
11. There should be started a mentor program, between/among college alumni and students.
Every alumnus should be assigned 2-3 junior students, who are at the most 3 years
junior to him/her, wherein the senior will provide guidance, supervision and support to the
junior to streamline the latter’s career in the best possible manner.
12. There should be a quarterly newsletter sent to the alumni, about all the happenings in the
college.
13. For the creation of alumni fund, college should start with the practice of asking students,
especially who get placed through CDC, the college placement cell, to donate their first
salary to the alumni fund.
14. College resources like Library should be available to alumni, for use.
15. CDC should make efforts to increase the number of companies coming for placement in
college. The purpose is to diversify the placements, and not let the students concentrate
in any one company, as part of long term development of college and Alumni
Association.
Also, CDC should, in harmony with Alumni Association, pitch the high profile CBS alumni,
in the organizations they are inviting for recruitments (in case they are there), and
leverage them to negotiate better profiles and packages for students.
16. The college should make efforts to have a residential campus as soon as possible.
17. All the college alumni should be requested to send in a list of all the Phone numbers and
Email IDs they have, of their college friends, so that those people also can be sent mails
regularly and be updated, and invited for meetings etc.
18. The annual alumni dinner should be held on October 2 or on first Sunday, of October,
every year, whichever is arrived at majority in consensus. A fixed date shall help the
Alumni Association, maximize the participation of alumni, of even those who stay outside
Delhi and may be India, in the annual alumni dinner.
19. CBS selection Process should be improved, along with increase in the number of
applicants, so as to refine the quality of students that enter CBS, over a period of time.
