The Press Writer Jaryl (J) spoke to Xin Yi (X), chairperson of AEAC, to understand more about the functions of the committee, the events under their purview and find out some of the difficulties that she and her committee faces along the way.

With the engagement of current residents in our alumni event, we hope that they too will come back as alumni to join our events someday after they graduate.
