The English Department Alumni Society or EDAS is organising the much awaited annual reunion, the EDAS Bash, on Jan 25, Friday. One of the organisers said the year 2018 marks the 97th anniversary of the Department of English and also the 32nd anniversary of the first reunion, which was organised in 1986 by EDAS. General members will pay Tk 600, couple Tk 1,000 while life members and “Early Birds” (who would arrive early) Tk 500. The alumni society is also planning a picnic on Feb 16, said one of the organisers. Since its establishment in 1986, EDAS has been working for the welfare of the students of the English Department by providing them with scholarships and handing out financial assistance to the department for organising a variety of academic and cultural events.
