PAY BACK WHAT YOU OWN TO THE SYSTEM

NED has spent a large amount subsidizing our education. We need to pay this back. According to some rough estimates this sum amounts to around $5000 to $7500. We need to figure out how to collect it and pay this amount. Typically, here in the USA the Alumni department which is a part of the university collects funds. Also each university has an Endowment fund. As an example Harvard University has a 26 billion dollar fund which is invested in the stock market. This was reported in the Los Angeles Times on September 13, 2007. (Business Section front page)

in my view the best we can do for NED is to help students adn to give assistance to students in their education.

Please be clear on what you mean by "help students". Helping students could mean money, books, coaching etc. Please be specific on what you want.

I have upated the selection criteria and increased it to 4 students. Is it possible for you to post this " Free GRE tests for 4 students" information so that the third and final year students can benefit. Your help will be appreciated. Thanks

I think all of us realize the importance of having a strong alumni and now we should strive make it so strong so that it has some sort of influence over the mgmt and admin of the university.
Time and again when individuals have tried to contact the administration to point out some bad practice or offer some advice, they have be cooly turned away. This should be one of the aspects of such an alumni.

As a result, the solar panel imports in the country jumped from 2,800 MW in 2022 to 5,000 MW in 2023, in…
