ICCG Dettelbach Meeting Summer 2003

The ICCG enjoyed a great meeting in Dettelbach this Summer, joined by Dr Tidu Maini from Imperial College London.

Nigel fascinated us with the work he has been doing analyzing the effects of pollution, in particular in Third World countries. Just where industry and the population is growing in these countries, the crop yield is being drastically diminished.

Thorsten amicably demonstrated that we have a long way to go before we achieve the professionalism of MIT Alumni (and he was worried that they were behind the activities of Harvard!).
And I believe I can safely say that all enjoyed the throbbing night life Koln was able to offer us in the Altstadt!

Our thanks also go to the MIT and the Dutch Imperial College Alumni Clubs, whereby we were cordially invited to participate in their events. We will be seeking to strengthen these inter-Alumni events, and keep you posted.

On the negative side, we were disappointed not to be able to hold a joint IC London/German event with Dr Maini in the British Embassy in Berlin. We will certainly be pursuing this for 2003 and we will keep you posted!

We are aiming to hold our next ICCG annual meeting near Wurzburg in early Summer 2003, and we hope to announce this is our new Internet Site that IC London will incorporate into the IC web site.

And if you have ideas or requests for our Alumni, please do not hesitate to communicate them to us!!!
