"PanIIT conferences are meeting places for the alumni of IITs. They are held every other year in India, alternating with the US. In 2008, given the context of Golden Jubilee celebrations of IIT Madras, the PanIIT meeting is being held on the IIT Madras campus in Chennai from December 19 to 21. This will be the first PanIIT meet to be held on the campus of an IIT. For that reason, campus administration and residents have been extremely supportive to the organisers of PanIIT 2008. In particular, Prof Ananth has been insistent from day one that the meet should be held on campus so that it provides a fulfilling experience for the alumni."
Dr R. Nagarajan, Professor, Dept of Chemical Engg, IIT Madras, Chennai (http://www.iitm.ac.in/), and Co-Chair, Programme Committee, PanIIT 2008 Global Conference (, http://www.paniit2008.org/)
