Meeting people at BMCC
Meeting people at BMCC, in Pune, starts with the campus's own social rhythm, not a generic checklist.
BMCC was renamed in 1944 after businessman Chandrashekhar Agashe donated Rs 2 lakh to the fledgling commerce college, and it celebrated its Diamond Jubilee in 2005 with then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh as chief guest, a scale of institutional recognition unusual for a single commerce college.
What the campus is like socially
BMCC runs on a commerce-college culture built around case-comp societies, the annual business fest, and a placement-focused social calendar.
