SPIC MACAY @ IIM Calcutta

After being associated with SPIC MACAY in NSIT, I was little sad to see that there is absence of the same in IIM-C. And I knew that it was pretty active till a few years back. Luckily, I found company in Justin, my junior from NSIT and was also an active volunteer in SPIC back then.

Both of us wanted to do it in our first year but paucity of time did not allow us to pursue. Nevertheless, we were able to arrange a small talk by none other than Dr. Kiran Seth in the campus. After this, there was lull in our enthusiasm levels too given the schedule in the campus.

But in the second year, we decided to make sure that atleast one performance is held in the campus before we leave in March 2010. We took this up with Kolkata chapter and after much persuasion and negotiations, we could bag a performance from Dr. N. Rajam.

Since it was a first performance in the campus, we needed some support and it was really heartening to see so many students volunteering in the arrangements for the performance.

The program was successfully held on Feb 4 with an amazing response from the audience in terms of turnout and participation.

Hope this continues now!

  2. First of all congrats for promoting Indian culture through SPIC MACAY :)
    Secondly we must never use short forms like SPIC....We must discourage this practice...as it is SPIC MACAY....and its full form is self justified in it :)
