If you thought that Dhoom Dharakka was over by 20th March well, you are absolutely wrong, man! On last friday (March 28) the IBAites organized the Freshers' Reception for BBA 5th and MBA 31st Batch. Of course they did not have Sheraton's Winter Garden as their venue, but then in the IBA auditorium the spirit of the freshers and the existing IBAites was so high, and the music was just too cool that the reception was , no doubt, the fourth Dhoom Dharakka of Dhaka. And thanks to Babu (MBA 29th batch), Mahin (MBA 30th Batch) and Shuchl (BBA 1st Batch) for ingeniously supervising the whole program, making it a great success.

The program started with the usual function etiquette - the speeches of the sages. However on that very occasion, Dr. Abdur Rab, the Director of IBA, Dr. Nurur Rahman, the Chairman of BBA program, and Dr. Anwar Hussain, the founder member of the BBA program, all said their wise words this time rather with a tinge of humour, making the audience burst Into laughter time to lime. And then there was a bit of cultural show : recitations, dance, folk-songs and what not! But the real thing was yet to come Once the sages had left the auditorium and band songs started to rock the floor, the euphoria-struck IBAites made the use of every skratch of space available between the podium and the gallery to dance and shake with the rythm. One after one smashing songs continued. And the vocalist of the last band , Ehsan (29th batch), stretched the show till 11:30 p.m., when the function finally ended, much to the dismay of the audience. They wanted more!

Known for its notoriously rigorous curriculum, IBA, the country's leading Business school, has many distinctive qualities. One such is: It is a place where, no wonder, education and fun go together.
