Dear Students and Colleagues 

This month, we held our inaugural Appreciation Dinner to express our thanks to 160 alumni and partners who have shown support and dedication to giving back to the College and the University in various meaningful ways. 

We recognise that after graduation, our students embark on their careers, prioritise family commitments, and pursue personal passions. Therefore, we truly appreciate that so many of them take the time to reconnect with the College, their alma mater, at different stages of their life journeys. 

We are also grateful that CDE can count on others who share our mission to make a difference. These partners, too, wholeheartedly supported our students and staff. 

As CDE grows in strength, we are empowered by the contributions of our alumni and partners and hope to welcome more as part of our community in the years ahead.
