The Madras Christian College honoured two of its alumni who had made a mark for themselves in their chosen fields at the fifth edition of the college’s Distinguished Alumni Series.
The college which began functioning in 1837 has so far seen 184 batches graduate from its portals.
On Friday, Sashi Kumar, founder of Media Development Foundation and Ruth Kattumuri, founder of Indian Observatory in the London School of Economics, were honoured. MCC Alumni Association president K.M. Mammen said the Distinguished Alumni Series was “designed to inspire and motivate our current crop of students.” The award comprised a plaque, a medal and a citation.
