Joining a club of your interest will surely give you more soft skills in life along with the fun .<BR/>But our college has only a limited number of students plus we don't have any facilities.(the most heard cliche in tis coll)<BR/>To overcome these major drawbacks is a daunting task that requires more than just "interest" & "encouragement".At present I am sorry to say we are not faring well. Well hope for the best.jithinferrarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12434755638790010165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-89663858740628551802008-05-23T00:14:00.000+05:302008-05-23T00:14:00.000+05:30i too agree wid the idea of introducin clubs to ou...i too agree wid the idea of introducin clubs to our campus.....but arent these too many??i mean its lik there should be another club for co ordinatin the co ordinators of all these clubs........when goin for fests and all...these clubs need to b organized rt...<BR/>abt the music club...i think....this is the rt tim to start a band...many of our juniors r good at handlin instruments..<BR/>v had an english club..in s3...jus the ones in our class..to improve ones speakin skills..we did a few debates and speech cessions...but eventually it faded off....an english club or a communication skills club wud b a nice suggestion...i guess....<BR/>and a cheering club....(not a mudravakyam club) wud b a nice option....keepin in mind the number of students in our clg...a cheering club can better coordinate all the cheering stuff when goin for fests.....and tat ll bring a better focus to all the cheerings and save a lot of energy.....Spartanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16837909902591404534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-56845296029259817012008-05-09T19:47:00.000+05:302008-05-09T19:47:00.000+05:30Had some troubles wit my net connection .

Me, along with sreehari , sandeep and a few other guys in my class had tried to start a Soft skills club some time in the previous semester . Somehow we couldn't go forward with it , the reason being many of the students didn't seem interested . I think our juniors can take some initiative and go forward with these ideas .<BR/><BR/><BR/>@Abhi : I tell you , those biriyanis that I got as a part of placement is something I'll always remember about my college life .Abhijithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03512049558971335973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-656610514223982932008-04-25T14:06:00.000+05:302008-04-25T14:06:00.000+05:30Does anyone read this blog?Cos it seems like its t...Does anyone read this blog?<BR/>Cos it seems like its the same 2-3 people who comment.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, if we have a faculty that supports extra-curriculars, then it is important that the students themselves be motivated to participate.<BR/><BR/>Believe me, you gain a lot from fests. You gain monetarily :), and you also gain a lot of confidence. I personally can testify to that fact. <BR/><BR/>I remember when we were in second year, we got a day off on a friday cos crossroads was starting that day. That crossroads there was a pretty good participation from our college. <BR/><BR/>Even Dhwani in 2003/04. Very strong participation from us. <BR/>It is so much fun when a large group from one college go and participate in every other contest in a fest. It becomes more about fun and after a while it becomes addictive.<BR/><BR/>Juniors .... cmon ... go to fests. Conduct something in college. All this matters. Extra-curriculars are important for your resumes.Rohinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452192510550392416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-45883015907751832922008-04-25T07:46:00.000+05:302008-04-25T07:46:00.000+05:30"That Something is missing in the college now!"I d..."That Something is missing in the college now!"<BR/><BR/>I disagree!Abhilash Suryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18110158353571442251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-29727817979438074482008-04-24T15:21:00.000+05:302008-04-24T15:21:00.000+05:30Well said Rohin!

And every1 is desperately trying to improve their CV's as shortlists are company shortlists are based on them, and only limited number of people are taken into each CLub/SIG.<BR/><BR/>In GEC, people have to be interested to join. So I guess the focus should be on generating an interest. And the best way is through participating in Fests.<BR/><BR/>Freshers will join if only they see anything happening on campus. One of the reasons I, and maybe even Abhijith and the other few people in my batch participated in fests is because wen we were in 1st year, we had a great S6 batch that were very enthusiastic about fests and used to win regularly. WE had a lot of encouragement and suport from them.<BR/><BR/>So its upto the seniors to get the juniors into sports/arts/quizzing etc.Rohinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452192510550392416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1731046858030547432.post-91103662745999869532008-04-22T15:30:00.000+05:302008-04-22T15:30:00.000+05:30:-)Exhaustive review of all our "clubs" indeed.But...:-)Exhaustive review of all our "clubs" indeed.<BR/><BR/>But you missed the "Arts Club".
