Welcome Function (Fresher's Party)

On 3rd of August, we, the students of M.Sc. - II had organized a welcome function for the new (M.Sc. - I) students. Here are the details of the function.

Event started at 12pm sharp. Almost every student from both the classes were present on the day.
All the faculties were present. First, Prof. P.K.Nehe, Head of Department, welcomed the new students, and gave introductory lecture. It was followed by a geeky lecture of Prof. Niwas Patil (Ph.D.). He spoke about the new thought that's been holding amongst mathematicians about changing the PI constant. (More on this in another post).
The other invited faculties were Prof. Sonawane, Prof. Shirore, Prof. Kamale madam, Prof. Dhokrat.


By 1pm the lectures were done. The refreshments were served. 2 Sabudana vada + 1 Samosa + 1 Sonpapadi. Chutney was awesome!

After the refreshments, we started with few interesting games.
1. Collection of maximum earrings and watches in 1 minute.
2. Bursting of max balloons with leg within 30 sec.
3. The reflex game. (Contestants had to jump/sit down/stand up upon a single call. Anyone with a slight wrong move was disqualified)
4. Musical Chair

In each game, 10 students participated and 2 were shortlisted. Leaving us 8 finalists - 4 pairs of 2.
Now, it was the time for Scavenger Hunt. 10 items were hidden on the whole floor of department, and finalist had to find them within 5 minutes. The team coming up with max items would win.

Everyone enjoyed the games.
We entered the final phase of the welcome function. It wasn't gonna end without talent show. So whoever wanted to perform anything, did so. Some sang songs, some acted, some danced, others listened, saw, enjoyed!

And that was the end of the ceremony! Everyone was left mesmerized by the day. People were longing for more, but due to shortage of time, couldn't.
The event helped build a very good rapport between the juniors and seniors. Perhaps this was the best welcoming function anyone had given to their juniors in our department and college.

P.S. Students had decorated the class beautifully. Thanks to our Pardeshi mama who granted us permission for the decoration and had been so very helpful throughout the event.

Here are some of the pics.
