Life has long been running in the ‘new normal’, with lockdowns, quarantines, and isolation being the bigger part of our lives for the past 2 years. But as restrictions become less rigid with the pandemic somewhat slowing its ravage, this year, celebrating the 51 years of Bangladesh’s Independence and the return of students to their university life on campus, the American International University – Bangladesh (AIUB) organized the “Return to Freedom” Concert. On the 31^st of March 2022, the program rejoiced with the amazing musical performances of the AIUB Performing Arts Club (APAC), Minar Rahman, Joler Gaan, Tahsan Rahman Khan, and Dolchhut. The concert was open to all students and alumni of the university, who enjoyed the event together with faculty members, administrative officials, and the management. Commemorating our re-found freedom, swaying with the tunes and rhythms, it was indeed a much-needed break from the sombre academic lectures and assessments, where the students brought the energy and enthusiasm to a cultural program, while the alumni reconnected with their alma mater for an evening of revitalization. Looking forward to a future free from the uncertainties of the world today, AIUB hopes to pursue the continuity of not just education, but the overall experience of a student life in the university.
