ABOUT
WEBSITE
The
www.uamalumni.com website
is designed and managed by a volunteer, Ijachi Odeh, for the University
of Agriculture, Makurdi Nigeria Alumni Association - the UAM Alumni.
Ijachi
Odeh, a 1995 graduate
of Electrical and Electronics Engineering initiated the idea of
a Web site for the University of Agriculture, Makurdi Alumni Association
in August 2000. He initially developed and hosted the site on a
free web server.
As
the site traffic and UAM Alumni membership grew, Dr
Timothy Ijir, a 1987 graduate of Agricultural Engineering, pointed
out the need for the Alumni Association to have a more professional
looking website. He therefore volunteered to champion the cause
and bear some of the costs and responsibilities for the proposal.
To show his total commitment to the new UAM Alumni Association website,
Dr Ijir registered our top level domain name, www.uamalumni.com,
and paid for it’s hosting on a reliable Web Server (Dr Ijir is still
footing the cost of hosting this website). Finally, he also initiated
an email Listserv
(discussion group) so that any subscribed alumnus can get in touch
with all the other members on the list by sending an email to only
one address: uamalumni@yahoogroups.com.
The listserv can also be accessed on the web at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/uamalumni.
Following
these arrangements, the website was relocated
from a free web server in late March 2001 to the present
location. To
help defray part of Dr Ijir’s costs for domain registration and
hosting the UAM Alumni Association website, several alumni have
made financial contributions to the project as a sign of their commitment
to towards the development of the website. These include: Anthony
Ogor, Shaibu John, Ijachi Odeh, Mrs. Buki Ogunleye (Nee Adediwura), Sunny
Idajili, Late Atavti Asuwe, Boniface Nongo, Mrs .Lovette Ononuga
, Omochi Adekwu and Adebayo Taofiq Oluwa.
