Sanskriti 2015 - A War was fought. Amidst sleepless nights and jam-packed schedules, the students of IIM Trichy managed to conjure up a show so stunning that it was really a Battle of Entertainment rather than the purported Battle of Sections. The participants from both sections danced their hearts out while basking in the limelight, spreading smiles and making memories.
IIM Shillong’s Golf Cup Season 8 culminated successfully on November 8. The annual B-school tournament was hosted over November 7-8, and saw participation from over 100 pioneering golfers, cutting across government, academia, and industry. The tournament, first of its kind for any business school in India, is a unique and well woven event which facilitates industry- academia participation and encourages professionals to “Look East”. The event this year, like in the previous years was hosted with great fanfare, with a series of pre events like the Plenary session, “Run for Shillong” marathon to name a few. As part of the student committee involved in organising the event, I was reaking in different emotions at distinct times; anxiety, excitement, exhaustion, but as I look back, the overpowering feeling has been that of satisfaction and joy.
Internships and Live Projects are fast becoming the preferred way to learn the practical aspects of management, both for students and companies. We look at some of our students’ experiences in this area to understand this trend.
Manfest-Varchasva presents Jashn, the fashion parade. A celebration of glamour and poise, elegance and glitz, Jashn beckons all charismatic gentlemen and ladies to get ready for the fashion extravaganza. Come evening, we have none other than the dashing Sushrii Shreya Mishraa, Miss India United Continents 2014, hand-picking our winners!
Manfest-Varchasva is the annual Business, Sports & Cultural Festival of IIM Lucknow. The 4-day event is a confluence of Manfest, the Business Conclave and Varchasva, the Sports and Cultural Festival. Some of the highlights of the fest shall be the Sports events and the Corporate Luncheon, attended in the past by luminaries such as Mr. Harsh Mariwala, Dr. D. Subbarao and Mr. Kishore Biyani, and our headlining Pro-Shows that have featured national and international Pop and Rock bands such as RDB, Euphoria and like Pain of Salvation. Accompanying these shall be CSR activities including a Lucknow City Run, some of the most fiercely contested cultural events such as “Jashn”, the Fashion Parade, and the most challenging management events across India. It is the only event of its kind in the country, and the most awaited college event in campuses across India.
At the very outset I want to state something which I am proud of and something that my friends are really jealous about (jealous in a good way though). They keep on telling me how lucky I am that I end up studying in institutes that are as beautiful as some of those exotic getaway resorts which you see on Discovery or Fox Traveller-- BITS Pilani, Goa Campus first and IIM Shillong now; yes, I truly have been blessed.
