The theme for the night was mythical garden, and the atrium was transformed into a ground worthy of the wondrous creatures representing IMU sport houses. It was the perfect touch to welcome home the many familiar faces back to IMU. The Alumni Homecoming Dinner was an evening focused solely on welcoming home beloved Alumni near and far. It was a night filled with fond memories, laughter and warmth that was palpable.
The evening kicked off with a break-out session where Alumni had a chance to catch up with their respective schools and well missed lecturers. What fun they had exchanging stories and sharing snippets of the journey they have been on since they left IMU. They were then ushered to the Mei Ling Young Auditorium where attendees were welcomed by Alumni emcees, Dr Angela Tan and Dr Andrea Tan.
To acknowledge outstanding achievements of our beloved Alumni, the Young Alumnus Awards were handed out. The Young Alumnus Award was introduced in 2017 to recognise the contributions and achievements of IMU Alumni in the fields of professional leadership, academic achievements, contribution to the community and entrepreneurship and innovation.
Dinner was then served buffet style throughout the driveway all the way to the back court where Alumni enjoyed a hearty Malaysian spread. How Ming Tan served as emcee for the night and ensured entertainment continued in the form of various performances by the very talented IMU students and topped off with two rounds of eagerly awaited lucky draw.
