The minutes of the meeting:

On Golden Jubilee:

• Agreed on some financial contribution towards the events.
• Propose to have events like "Spelling Bee", "Dumb Charade".
• The team felt the event list is quite long. Would like the organizing committee to cut down a few.
• The team felt the need to have a GRAND OPENING DAY and a GRAND CLOSING DAY like the way we had in '87-'88 festival.
• On behalf of US team, Purnachandra to conduct a workshop in School during his visit this winter.
• On Alumni Association Formation (High Level Discussion)

• To facilitate and provide continuous support and guidance to the students of Don Bosco, Imphal for their overall growth and development.
• To unite the past pupils of Don Bosco, Imphal and render help to one another at times of need.

On Structure of the Association:

• Setting up of a Home Committee in Imphal. HC to have few high-ranking seniors as Advisory Board Member and Executive Members comprising past pupils from different batches.
• Creation of Regional Executive Team (RET) like US Team, UK Team, Bangalore Team, Delhi Team, Kolkatta Team etc..
• Opening up of Bank Account dedicated for AA.
• Coming up with Annual Alumni Membership Fee. The fee goes to the account as Alumni Fund. Every Alumnus contributes annually.
• Enrolling passing out students (class X) to Alumni Membership before they leave the school.
• Maintaining a clean database of the Alumni with their proper profile.

On Roles and Responsibilities of AA (High Level Process)

• Provide Help and Support for Students coming out of Manipuri for higher studies: HC to communicate with RETs on the particulars of such students. RET to welcome and extend the required help to the student.
• Identify and scope out projects that AA can take up within its capacity: RETs to work with HC closely to identify key implementable projects that will have significant impact on the students’ progress. Example- developing social skills of the students. What role can AA play in imparting this? It could range from providing innovative ideas to the School Management to collecting reading materials.
• Develop, Maintain and Strengthen the Relationship with the School and Students: Every outstation Alumni member pays a visit to school and interact with the students and teachers whenever they visit Imphal.During the visit members can conduct workshops, do a pep talk, share their experience etc. The key point here is "RELATONSHIP" and letting them know we are there to help them.
• Share Knowledge within the group: Identify SIG (Special Interest Group) or SME (Subject Matter Expertise) within the group. This would help the members when they need some help in a particular subject. 5) Unite the members: HC and RETs to have regional team meeting, conference calls, offsite to discuss issues, generate ideas or simply organize a get-to-gether, celebrate LIFE and have FUN!!!

The minutes of the meeting:

• To divide into batchwise will not be very effective, since it will make the groups a very small size, and there might be no people for each group to lead or take initiatives.
• We decided to stick as location wise, like Boscinians Bangalore.
• We thought of doing things for the Golden Jubilee Celebration of March 2007, we will make plans and initiatives for that events.
• For the time being, we want to do something as a first step, this we think will be direct, fast and effective to the students and school. We want to create enthusiasm and strong urge in the students to do well in HSLC exam. We want to give a prize to the student who scores the highest mark in the pre-HSCL exam that is conducted in the school. The reason we are going for the pre-HSCL exam is because for the main exam there will be prizes like Asem Arun's Gold Medal and other prizes, which they already know and has always been there. What we want to do it to create a sense of interest that the former students cares for them, for the school and want them to perform well. And above all, we want them to get the prize at pre-HSCL exam and get recognized fast, which is very important, because it will boost their morals of the hard work they will be giving in. The prize will be a "Personal Computer". We will buy one and send to you, if you okay with the idea.
• We decided not to go public in our school's yahoo group. We want it to be quiet and silent, so that no obstacles come in between, on what we are trying to do. We will surely let it be known to other Bosconians of other location so that they also get inspired, but first we want it to be executed into actions. We want this correspondence of our plan with you only.
• We want to get a word from you, and what you think of it. We want a 'go ahead' signal from you, if you like the idea. If there is any other ideas to be added in ours please do so.
