Alumni Sub Committees

Dear Alumni,

You will be pleased to know that further to the election of the Alumni Committee, we are also forming sub- committees for these following groups:

Music
Dance
Publicity
Logistics (under the Events manager); and
Communications/Editorial (under the Editor).

These sub-committees are created in anticipation of productions lined up for the next year. Each IC on the Committee will act as a representative of these sub-committee and liase between the Committee and the respective sub-committees. We invite all members to volunteer for those sub-committees of their interest. This is on an entirely voluntary basis and you would be working closely with the Committee and members.

Update: The Music Sub-Committee is almost formed and we intend to have three music-chairs on the music sub-committee, for vocal, instruments and percussion.

We are proud to present our three music chairs:

Mrs Premalatha Naidu will be our Music-Chair (Vocal);
Mr V Rajandra will be our Music-Chair (Instruments); and
Mr Thulasi Das will be our Music-Chair (Percussion).

We thank them in advance and look forward to working together under their guidance.

Please drop us an email at sifasalumni@gmail.com to let us know if you would also like to be more directly involved in the planning of music events for the Alumni.

Do watch this space for more information on the other sub-committees. The Dance and Editorial sub-committees are also a work in progress at the moment and looking for volunteers. Do contact us if these are your areas of interest and you believe you can contribute your time and ideas.

yours faithfully,

the SIFAS ALUMNI Committee
