BRAC University Earth & Environment Forum

BRAC University Earth and Environment Forum started their journey from Summer’12. They started their journey with some plan which they have wanted to fulfill. In 3rd June of 2012 our club fair was happened and through that fair we officially started our journey. As a first journey of this club we satisfied enough to see the response from the students. Approximately 75 students signed up and when they signed up we informed that our orientation program would be in the next day that means 4th June of 2012. The HR department kept the list of the new members. In the club fair, all phone numbers and E-mail IDs were collected from the Fresher’s.

We planned that how we will organize the orientation program. Then we fixed 4th June for orientation program because 5th June was the World Environment Day and we had almost organized an event for that. That’s why we have to start work quickly. So, we choose 4th June for our orientation program. Then we divided our work to our founding members of our club.

Our President and Vice President invited our honorable Advisors to join us.Then the HR Directors divided the duty of informing Fresher’s between them then they called/ gave message to the Fresher’s about the orientation program. They inform that in which room, when the orientation program would be started. They also inform them through E-mail.

The Admin Director managed the room in which we organize our orientation program. Then we booked a Room: CB 601 for the Orientation. Then our IT tried to make something special for the Orientation. So, they made power point presentation about our club, club members, club fair. As we just started our journey, so we could not show out other activities. So we presented what we did before the orientation program.

Who are in Marketing and Finance sector they estimated what we had to need. They bought those things. They ordered cake on which we mentioned our club’s name. Then they organize some food item for our Fresher’s. This department bought some decorative things to decorate the room.

In 4th June we started our program at 5:00pm after our classes. At 5:00pm Freshers came. At first they were introduced. We all Founding members talked about our club and we wanted to know why they interested about this club. Then they shared their opinion. We gave them some questions where they were asked that for what they join this club. Then we also asked any idea to develop our environment, what they expect from this club etc. Then our guest sir came and joined our program. They started our journey through cutting cake. Then they give some fruitful suggestions to us. They helped us a lot and they also encourage carrying on our work. Then we played PowerPoint presentation. In that program our club members were performed. Some members sang, some presents jokes which were related with environment consciousness. We also share what is the situation about our world environment and share some experiences which are being happened for polluted environment. Then we also invited Freshers to do something. But first they feel hesitation then we randomly called them. Then some Fresher’s present songs, some presented jokes, some presented poem.

Then we have informed our future plan of this club. We have informed that in the next day that means 5th June of 2012 the World Environment Day and for that day what we going to do. We inform all activities about 5th June and we divided activities among them. We have seen that Fresher’s are interested to take initiative. So we divided the works between all the members. We also inform that we do field work and we expect their presence. And end of the program we expect their presence in our all activities.

Our Photographer has picked many photos of all activities of our orientation program. At the end of the program all fresher and members took a photo together. After taking photo we finished our program with some refreshments.
