June 15, 2024 - 109 IBBA classmates have graduated! This cohort has had a truly unique experience. Upon arriving in Taiwan, they faced long periods of quarantine because of COVID-19, so for the first two years, they were unable to participate in the various activities that past students enjoyed. Though challenging, these experiences have created special memories—online classes, virtual events, wearing masks during in-person sessions, and only recognizing classmates' faces after a year.

This cohort has shown not only excellence but also incredible thoughtfulness. Through tough times, they supported each other and grew together, demonstrating remarkable resilience and unity. As you close this chapter of your IBBA journey, we hope you soar high and embrace a bright and wonderful future!

Best wishes to each and every one of you. Until we meet again!
