Aim of This Blog: Get Your Participation to Revive IACS

I have created this IACS Vadodara blog to invite you to participate in the process of establishing the role of General Body in taking decisions for restoring academic excellence and partipatory democracy in IACS. It is the General Body that comprises all the members that has to take vital decisions and not the Executive Committee as has been happening since 1995.

Secondly, this blog is meant to apprise you of the activities of the legally constituted and duly registered IACS Vadodara. It is a Public Trust registred with Assistant Charity Commissioner Vadodara and a Society registred with Registrar of Societies Vadodara with the name INDIAN ASSOCIATION FOR CANADIAN STUDIES VADODARA. Following the Order passed on 22.3.2006 by the Assistant Charity Commissioner Vadodara, this is the only legal claimant to the name INDIAN ASSOCIATION FOR CANADIAN STUDIES. Any other association with this name is illegal. The address of the registered office of IACS is as follows: Department of English, Faculty of Arts, M. S. University of Baroda, VADODARA 390002.

Thirdly, the blog will also provide links to other centres, associations, and agencies involved in the development of Canadian Studies in India and abroad. It will also provide updates on the seminars, conferences, fellowships and other academic events about Canadian Studies in India and abroad.

I threfore invite you to participate in this process and shall appreciate your comments, suggestions,observations and querries, if any.

PARTICIPATE AND REVIVE IACS.

This palteform will link up all those who have affinities with Canadian Studies or even those who are somehow interested in the field. Revival of the association will be instrumental not only to Canadian Studies but also to the overall academic excellence. Let's join the forces and look forward to a full website for IACS.
