March 18th marked a busy day on the Bilumni calendar as alumni on both the East and West coasts gathered for university reunions.
While alumni in the Bay Area in California prepared for their feast at Sultana Turkish Restaurant, New Yorkers were well into their cocktail party at Bistrouge tapas bar. Bistrouge, owned and operated by a Turkish New Yorker, provided a cozy atmosphere for Bilumni members to catch up. The venue was packed with almost 40 alumni in attendance and lasted late into the evening.
Karalyn Watson (IR/MA’07), Director of Bilkent Alumni Association North America, organized a small raffle where Bilkent T-shirts, duffle bags and other memorabilia were handed out to lucky winners.
