Alumni Chronicles
As a Centennial project, NSAC is developing a series of afternoon social/seminars in an effort to showcase the accomplishments of our alumni. Each session would be given by a graduate who has made a significant contribution since graduation. This contribution may be scientific, entrepreneurial, social or in any other way which enhances our society. It is hoped that we will showcase the potential of NSAC graduates and that this will provide our current students with role models. We hope that these social seminars will become a regular event (once/month) where all members of the NSAC community can meet informally for a coffee break and a social time before each presentation.
