Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit on Saturday appealed for significant contributions from the alumni in taking Alagappa College of Technology (A.C. Tech) to greater heights.
Addressing the inauguration of A.C. Tech’s platinum jubilee celebrations here, he said the alumni’s contribution to Anna University would be important, of which A.C. Tech is a part, gaining the Institute of Eminence tag recently from the Union government. Making a similar appeal, M.K. Surappa, Vice-Chancellor, Anna University, lauded the vision of late philanthropist Alagappa Chettiar and others in setting up the institution in 1944 that offered courses in fields like chemical, leather, and textile technologies that were novel at that time.
Sports and education
N. Srinivasan, vice-chairman and managing director, India Cements, and chairman, Platinum Jubilee Celebrations Committee, said though A.C. Tech later became part of Anna University, it has retained its unique character. He highlighted the importance given to both sports and education at the institution when he studied.
Twelve alumni of the institution were awarded Distinguished Alumni award. The awardees included, Mr. N. Srinivasan, T. Ramasami, Ramanathan Vairavan, Lawrence Surendra, S. Abhaya Kumar, Srinivasan K. Swamy, Sundaresan Jayaraman, Venkat Venkatasubramanian, P.V. Sambasiva Rao, A. Shanmugavasan, Ramadas Iyer, and Sivaramakrishnan.
Mr. Srinivasan, who owns Chennai Super Kings cricket team through India Cements company, said a special enclosure will be provided at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium for the alumni of A.C. Tech during the upcoming Indian Premiere League season.
S. Meenakshi Sundaram, Dean, AC Tech, and Vidya Shankar, president, AC Tech Alumni Association, spoke.
