The Bose Companion 2 Series 2 Multimedia speakers sound great for their size. It is a good product. We must listen to it with glee.

Note that this has nothing to do with Bose-Einstein condensates. I have nothing to do with these rumors. Indeed.

For now, this speaker is in hiding.

== HISTORY ==

Alumni.NET is a global alumni registry that first went online in 1994. The Registry was started by Mr. Eric Tomacruz, Ph.D. , as a way to get in touch with his friends from high school. Soon, more schools were being added to the registry as more and more people were getting connected to the internet as well. What began as a hobby became a full-scale multi-national registry.

With our tag line "Bringing School and Work Friends Together", we aim to help re-unite old school friends so that we may enrich lives by facilitating communication in relationships. With the world smaller via the Internet, we encourage our members to plan a reunion, exchange photos, or catch up on old times… all of which are possible through Alumni.NET

Alumni.NET has since grown to include millions of registered users from over 102,000 organizations around the globe, and is growing in number everyday. This success all the more makes our efforts worthwhile. Read our success stories and check out our press area to see what others have to say about us.

* Website: [http://www.univdhaka.edu/]
* Overview
The University of Dhaka was established in 1921 under the Dacca University Act 1920 of the Indian Legislative Council, it is modelled after British universities. Academic activities started on July 1, 1921 with 3 faculties, 12 teaching departments, 60 teachers, 847 students and 3 residential halls. <ref name=wikipedia>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Dhaka#History ] Wikipedia.ORG. Accessed April 2011.</ref>

It is believed that a combination of political, social and economic compulsions persuaded the government of India to establish a University at Dhaka 'as a splendid imperial compensation' to Muslims for the annulment of the partition of Bengal. The first vice-chancellor of the university, Dr., later Sir, Philip Joseph Hartog, a former academic registrar of the University of London for 17 years and a member of the University of Calcutta Commission, described this phenomenon as the 'political origin' of the institution. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

The Partition of Bengal in 1905 provided the Muslim majority community of East Bengal and Assam with a sphere of influence of their own and raised new hopes for the development of the region and advancement of its people. But its annulment, barely six years later due to stiff opposition from the powerful Hindu leadership, was viewed by Muslims as 'a grievous wrong'. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

A deputation of high ranking Muslim leaders, including Sir Nawab Khwaja Salimullah, Khan Bahadur Chowdhury Kazimuddin Ahmed Siddiky, Nawab Syed Nawab Ali Choudhury and A. K. Fazlul Huq, met Lord Hardinge, the then Viceroy of India, on January 31, 1912 and expressed their fears that the annulment would retard the educational progress of their community. As compensation for the annulment of the Partition, as well as protest against the general antipathy of Calcutta University towards Muslims, the deputation made a vigorous demand for a university at Dhaka. In response, Lord Hardinge acknowledged that education was the true salvation of Muslims and that the government would recommend the constitution of such a university to the Secretary of State. This was confirmed in an official communiqué on February 2, 1912. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

Initially, the university under the British administration worked hard to build up an outstanding record of academic achievement, earning for itself the reputation for being the 'Oxford of the East'. The university contributed to the emergence of a generation of leaders who distinguished themselves in different occupations in East Bengal. Until the Partition of India in 1947, it maintained its unique character of being one of the few residential institutions of higher learning in Asia. In 1947, it assumed academic authority over all educational institutions above the secondary level falling within East Bengal. In the process, it became a teaching-cum-affiliating institution. This transformation, coupled with its unprecedented growth in the years that followed, put strains beyond reckoning on its human as well as material resources. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

A new phase began in the history of the University with the emergence of the People's Republic of Bangladesh in 1971. This has been a phase of development, expansion and consolidation of earlier gains. The University assumed a central role in the academic pursuits of the region including this new nation. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

The Regional Maritime Academy (RMA), Accra, Ghana, is an international tertiary institution. The RMA presently occupies the premises of the former Ghana Nautical College. <ref name=wikipedia>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_Maritime_Academy_-_WMU_Branch] Wikipedia.ORG. Accessed November 2008.</ref>

On 1 October 1982, the Government of Ghana promulgated the Regional Maritime Law 1982, which was followed by the signing of the instrument of transfer, handing over the College to the then Ministerial Conference of West and Central African States on Maritime Transport (MINCONMAR), now known as Maritime Organization of West and Central Africa (MOWCA), which negotiated for its regionalization. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

The College was then re-named The Regional Maritime Academy (RMA). The formal inauguration of the RMA took place on Thursday 26th May, 1983 with the following countries as founding members: Republic of Cameroon, The Gambia, Ghana, Liberia and Sierra Leone. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

Regionalization of the Academy was for cooperation, particularly with regard to the training of personnel to ensure the sustained growth and development of maritime industries in the sub-region and beyond. The Academy in Ghana serves the Anglophone countries while a sister Academy in Côte D’Ivoire (L'Académie Régionale des Sciences et Techniques de la Mer – ARSTM) serves the Francophone countries. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

The RMA is a branch of the World Maritime University, Malmö, Sweden and an affiliate of the University of Ghana, Legon. The Academy also has working relations with other universities in the sub-region. The RMA has since December, 2004 been given Institutional Accreditation by the National Accreditation Board, Ghana. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

* Overview
Landlord of that time, Roy Bahadur Anandra Chandra Roy, established the college on 24 September 1899. Anandra Chandra Roy was a renowned patron of promoting and developing education in the district. He was a contractor by profession and accordingly set aside a large amount of money to establish a college for the development of higher education in Comilla. Comilla Victoria College was thus born to fulfill his long cherished dream. In recognition of his noble endeavour, the British Government awarded him the title “Roy Bahadur” after the establishment of the college. A white sculpture was built in front of the main gate of intermediate section of the college to keep the memory of Roy Bahadur alive. Queen Victoria was the empress of India from 1876 to 1901. At that time, Comilla was under the rule of the empire, hence the college was named as Comilla Victoria College. <ref name=wikipedia>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comilla_Victoria_College#History Comilla Victoria College] Wikipedia.ORG. Accessed March 2011.</ref>

Sattendranath Boshu was the first principal of the college. He was the headmaster of former Comilla Victoria School. He remained the principal of the college till his death. He was a scholar as well as a researcher of literature. He was also a professor of English and was awarded Rabindranath Prize for his outstanding contribution to literature. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

Until 1947, the college was affiliated to Calcutta University. Between 1925 and 1947 it offered three-year honors programs in English, Mathematics, Sanskrit, Politics, Economics and Arabic. The college introduced Bachelor of Science courses in 1942 and Bachelor of Commerce courses in 1956. Honors courses in Political Science, Physics, Chemistry, Accounting and Management were introduced in 1971-72. Masters Program in Bangla and Economics started in 1973. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

In 1962-63, the degree section of the college was shifted to its new campus at Dharmapur, which is three kilometers from the old campus at Ranir Dighi. The old campus now houses the offices of the principal and vice-principal, teachers' room, principal's residence, gymnasium, auditorium, library, and science laboratories. The new campus has four new buildings and these are used for academic activities. The college was nationalised in 1968. Many of the students fought in the country's war of independence. ICMA program was started from 1982. In 1984-85, it became a postgraduate college. In 1996, the college had honours courses in 16 subjects. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

==Makerere University==
[http://www.mak.ac.ug Makerere University] is one of the oldest and most prestigious Universities in Africa. Founded in 1922, our vision is to be the leading institution for academic excellence and innovations in Africa, as we build for the future. The main campus covering an area of about 300 acres is located on Makerere Hill, one of many hills that make up Kampala, the Capital City of Uganda. Other campuses are spread around the country in an effort to take services nearer to the population.

Currently, Makerere offers over 200 programs (at both undergraduate and graduate levels) with over 7,000 courses. Student enrollment is over 35,000 of whom 44% are female students. There is a growing number of international students, who currently make up 9% of the student population and come from over 10 countries, both from within and beyond Africa. The University also employs over 2,800 staff, the bulk of whom are academic staff to teach her growing body of students.

==Academic Units==
Across the different campuses, Makerere offers her programs through 22 academic Units that include One College, 10 Faculties, five Schools and six Institutes. The different academic units work in close collaboration, offering both in-house and several cross-cutting courses. A restructuring program is ongoing to ensure that Makerere's programs remain responsive to the development needs of Uganda and the region. Below is a brief description and links to their websites, for more information about their different programmes.

===[http://chs.mak.ac.ug/ College of Health Sciences]===
Established as the School for Medicine for University College of East Africa in 1924, this later evolved into the Faculty of Medicine for Makerere University. It has now grown to become the College of Health Sciences since December 2007, still striving to produce quality human resource and services that address the health needs of the people of Uganda. Currently the College comprises of four schools that include:

===[http://agric.mak.ac.ug Faculty of Agriculture]===
Agriculture is one of the pioneer academic units at Makerere University. Its prominence derives from the role played by agriculture both in the livelihoods of the people as well as the economy of Uganda. The Faculty is dedicated to advancing agricultural development through training, knowledge generation and service delivery in Uganda and the region.

** +255 22 215 0701 (fax)
* Website: [http://www.agakhanschools.org/tanzania/akmss/]
* Overview
Established in 1967, as a co-educational institution, the Aga Khan Mzizima Secondary School is one of Tanzania's leading non-government schools. The Aga Khan Mzizima Secondary School motto is "Better Always Better". <ref name=wikipedia>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aga_Khan_Mzizima_Secondary_School#The_School.27s_History Aga Khan Mzizima Secondary School] Wikipedia.ORG. Accessed January 2011.</ref>

The School is part of the Aga Khan Education Services (AKES). AKES has a long tradition of leadership in educational development. The foundations of the present system were laid by Sir Sultan Mahomed Shah, Aga Khan III, under whose guidance over 200 schools were established during the first half of the 20th century, the earliest of them in 1905 in Zanzibar, Gwadur in Pakistan and Mundra in India. Since the creation of Aga Khan Education Service companies in the 1970s, the schools have been centrally administered and managed. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

AKES currently operates more than 300 schools and advanced educational programmes that provide quality pre-school, primary, secondary and higher secondary education services to more than 54,000 students in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Kenya, Kyrgyz Republic, Uganda, Tanzania and Tajikistan. Schools are also envisaged, or under development, in Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Madagascar, Mali, Mozambique and Syria. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

In the last 36 years, the School has undergone three major changes. The first came in 1980, when Mzizima introduced a six-week orientation course for Form I students. This initiative assisted students who could not cope with the change from the Swahili primary level instruction to English-based instruction in secondary school. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

Students were taught sufficient language skills to help them better grasp English-medium classes during the orientation course. Other subjects were also taught in English at a level accessible to students. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

After 1980, Mzizima introduced student-centred education (then a novel idea in Tanzania). Before this change, teaching at the School was passive, with the teacher lecturing the class and providing notes. In today’s curriculum, class discussions and projects are of equal importance to tests and exams. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

As a result of these changes and a rise in academic rigour, the School began to receive more prospective students than it could accommodate. In 1990, a merit-based entry system was introduced. Prospective Form I students were admitted based on their performance at an entrance test. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

Over time, the School’s existing A-level streams - PCM (Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) and PCB (Physics, Chemistry and Biology) no longer fully catered to the academic interests and needs of all students. This prompted the School to introduce the ECA (Economics, Commerce and Accountancy) stream in 1995. Today, the School offers the PCM, PCB and ECA combinations at Advanced Level. In line with the commitment to provide educational leadership in Tanzania , in 2005, the centenary of Aga Khan schooling worldwide, parents were offered an alternative to the national curriculum for their children. This new program has introduced the British-based IGCSE and an application to the International Baccalaureate Organization for accreditation to the Diploma Program to allow students to graduate with an internationally recognized qualification. The culmination of this initiative will be the opening of a purpose built facility near the University of Dar es Salaam. The foundation stone for this state-of-the-art school was laid by His Excellency the President of Tanzania Benjamin William Mkapa in the presence of His Highness the Aga Khan. <ref name="wikipedia"/>

*'''I didn't get any search results'''
** If you didn't get any search results, either your group or location is not yet listed with Alumni.NET or your group or location is spelled differently in Alumni.NET. Our groups are listed the way they were submitted to us. Try searching with a slight variation in the spelling. If your school has more than one official name, try searching for either of the names.

*'''Search Tips'''
** Search is NOT case-sensitive.
** Search results for groups and locations are arranged alphabetically by country and contain 20 results per page.
** Do not use abbreviations of your group to search for it.
** Don't use generic words like "high school", "college" or a country name. These words produce too many search results.

** Don't use generic words like "high school", "college" or a country name. These words produce too many search results.
