Centigradz Live in Concert
Centigradz Live in Concert was organized by the Alumni Association of the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT) to collect resources for the "Sisu Aruna" scholarship fund. This was the initial step in a series of fund raising projects planned for the "Sisu Aruna" scholarship fund. The students of SLIIT experienced a variety of grooving sounds on the 9th September, 2005 at the Malabe campus auditorium, where they danced to the beat of four up coming bands in Sri Lanka. All participants enjoyed them selves to the maximum by riding the heat wave of Centigradz in Concert. If you weren't there then you definitely missed the spice of "Blue Print", "Side Fx", "Swatika" and the curry by "Centigradz". The Alumni encourages fellowship building among its past and present students and cordially invites all past SLIIT and Curtin Students to join the Alumni and give their fullest support in carrying out the planned activities.
