On the 25^th of November, the graduates of BUET-87 met up for the first time after nearly 20 years when a few of the members took the initiative to organize this event. This was a very emotional reunion for the former students and during the get-together, the students shared many fond memories and also talked about their life at present. The members have decided to now meet regularly at every quarter of a year.
