First Meeting of Semesra Alumni Association.


Aside from the hiking retreat to Broga, last 25th December, Valedictorian also organized the first alumni meeting which took place at University of Nottingham, Semenyih (which is situated just a stone throw away from Broga Hill). Apparently, there were so many things to discuss about. From the littlest things to the bigger ones.

We started off our meeting with a brief introduction by a special guest, Mr. Mat Kamil, a father to a Valeds. His attendance was unexpected. Moreover, surprisingly he happened to be the Vice Chairman of Gabungan Persatuan Alumni Sekolah Berasrama Penuh Malaysia. It was such an honour to have this golden opportunity as he shared some useful tips regarding the formation of our alumni association. He also gave a short eloquent explanation in handling the alumni organization efficiently. We were notified that a strong alumni association is an important and necessary component of chapter life, providing support, advice and assistance and thus shouldn't be depreciated. 

We then proceeded with our next meeting minute -- deciding the alumni's name. The first proposal by Farid gained the most votes and hence, OSEM (which stands for Old SEMESRIANS) was chosen as the alumni's name. Subsequently, we moved on with the appointment of the executive committees. The following shows the result of the fair poll Valeds unanimously agreed to,


Ultimately, the primary purpose of an alumni association is to promote the long-term stability and existence of the chapter while enhancing the fraternity experience. There are many more ideas that the alumni association can come up with. Consistency and professionalism are important to a successful organization. Hopefully, the elected executive committees can give their undivided commitment and venture in leading this association excellently.
