On 1st. of July Dhaka University celebrated its 100th anniversary. As the country along with rest of world is going through a devastating pandemic, killing thousands of people, the Centenary Celebration was a bit lacklustre and token excepting few alumni publishing some commentaries in some national dailies and a handful coming to talk on TV and arranging few webinars. The Vice-chancellor and his colleagues also planted few saplings to mark this historic occasion. One hundred years of existence of a university in a country like Bangladesh is definitely an occasion to be proud of. For my generation it is more so because as a student we could also experience Golden Jubilee of the University in 1971 but as the country was inching towards the Liberation War there wasn’t much scope for any celebration, excepting DUCSU publishing a twelve page tabloid sized bulletin. There were few seminars at TSC.
