Varun Murali reports:
With the election of General secretaries and Assistant General secretaries (see table), for the conduct of various activities under the aegis of the Gymkhana , planning and marketing for various fests to be held have reached full steam.
OPULENCE ( IT’s management festival), in its second year, will be held on the 14th and 15th of January, and will kick off a plethora of fests lined up for the second semester. Abhinav Singhal (3rd metallurgy) will be the student convener.To follow it up will be COMET (Conference on Mechanical engineers and Technology), to be held from the 27th to 29th of January. Nitin Srivastava (4th Mechanical) will be the convener from the student’s side for this event. COMET, the Department of Mechanical Engineering’s Technical Festival, is also in its infant years and will be trying to emulate the runaway success it was, the last time it was held, in 2004.
The net result of all this is an abundance of colourful posters and other stick outs all over the campus, ranging from Wall Magazines to trivia posers, sure to get the junta hooked up. IT BHU Chronicle wonders why some of these fests don’t take place in the 1st semester, so that they don’t end up competing against each other for marketing and personnel. But, the months of January and February, surely, are going to be a lot of fun.
