Subject: RE: UOR Alumni List - Dallas

Sir,

Let me congratulate you on the www.Ruaa-Nac.com site. Most of us have visited the website and like it. Additionally, let me take this
oppurtunity to introduce myself. I am from 1989 batch of the Mech & Industrial Engg department. Along with another UOR alumni, Sandeep Chandel (batch of 1988),we started the Dallas ALumni Chapter late 1999. We have 34 members in the Alumni as of today. Last weekend we had our first alumni meeting for the year 2002 and it was quite successful. We had an agenda for the chapter for the year and most of the members have agreed on. Some of the items talked were:

- All of us believe we received the best of the education and training at UOR and therefore we owe something back to the university. Therefore, we
decided to collect money from the chapter and send it to the university. After going through your website, I came across exchange of letters
between you and Mr.PREM VRAT, Director, IITR, and see that you already have a similar effort going on. We would like to know how can we contribute to the same effort ($25 million). Do you have a process outlined for the various chapters in US? Or, do you have any suggestions on how we should go about doing this? How can we make this goal ($25 M) for the alumni in US and abroad?

- Linking Dallas chapter with RUAA-NAC chapter. Is there an effort to consolidate all the chapters under one umbrella so that all of us can
work towards one goal?

- Quaterly news letter. Is there any news letter from RUAA-NAC? May be there can one news letter for all the alumni chapters in US. This may also get circulated in IITR.

If you have any other suggestions, please let me know. I am also including a spreadsheet of members along with this email.

thanks

-amit
