The Literary Club of the Cultural Council of the College organized the second edition of Lit Quest, an intra-college event on 14th December, 2018 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. 52 students and 26 teams from all the Undergraduate programmes participated in the event.
The event was conducted in three rounds. The first round was a Task-Based Spelling Bee where students had to spell words whilst completing a challenge assigned to them like balancing books on their heads and walking in a straight line, or placing cups on each other’s heads. The second round was a Treasure Hunt which involved activities such as writing a small poem, acting out a scene from Shakespeare’s play “Romeo and Juliet” in the Canteen and Grammar-based tasks. The final round was a Quiz based on TV Shows, jumbled words and Just a Minute.
Keagan Silveira and Rahul Shetty of FY B.Com (B) won the Third Place, Hriya Patil and Ipshita Singh from FY B.Com (A) won the Second Place and Mark Dourado and Jaynold Barretto from SYBCA (A) won the first place in the event. The event was organized by Ms. Gaargi Bhat, Literary Club in-charge, and Ms. Megan Fernandes, Student Coordinator. The event was an attempt to promote student involvement and interest in literature, language and vocabulary, and the overwhelming participation was proof of its success.
