Professors Dwijendra Tripathi, VS Vyas and NR Sheth are no more with us. All three of them played signifi cant roles in building IIMA as Wan institution. Professor Tripathi, the best known business historian of the country, not only contributed to creating this discipline in India during his tenure at IIMA, as Dean he was also responsible for building a variety of systems and cultural norms at the Institute that have withstood the test of time. A well-known agricultural economist, Padma Bhushan Professor Vyas was the Director of the Institute during 1978-82. Among several important positions, he also served as a member of the Prime Minister’s Economic Advisory Committee, both for Mr Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Dr Manmohan Singh. A doyen in the fi eld of Industrial Relations, Professor Sheth served as the Director of the Institute during 1984-91. IIMA owes a lot to these stalwarts and this issue pays a small tribute to all of them. They will always stay with us in spirit and keep reminding us of the core values of WIMWIAN. Over the years, several IIMA alumni have contributed a great deal to the social sector. Their engagement with the community at large has made signifi cant positive impact. This issue brings to you stories of some alumni from the batch of 1991 for whom community engagement has been part of their life. The 1991 batch is also engaged with the Institute to inspire students on campus to take on roles that can have signifi cant social impact. We hope to bring out more such inspiring stories in the subsequent issues from other batches. Another edition of The Red Brick Summit (TRBS) was organized on Campus during September 29 and October 2, 2018.
