The BBA Department bid their seniors adieu as the end of the academic terms looms near. With less than a fortnight left for exams to settle in and signal the end of their degree, the Department threw an exciting party for the outgoing students in an atmosphere charged with energy and emotion. Dances, songs and games kept the mood upbeat throughout while the distribution of mementos and a visual representation of a walk down Memory Lane evoked strong memories and even a few tears.

It was aptly named the 'Fashionova 2008 Afterparty'. Ms. Javeria Pasha, Chair of the department said, 'I'm emotionally attached to them. Its been three years and we've become a family. It's the feeling of when your children get married and go away. That's how I'm feeling."

We wish those graduating the greatest success and good luck in the years that follow.
