Brief Report of Exuberance 2017

The the idea of Exuberance was mooted in the year 2014 whereby the idea was to conduct all the activities in the span of 1 and half day. This normally would be spread out on Friday and Saturday so that teaching be least hampered. The term Exuberance was coined by the students team. Exuberance has since then grown up in leaps and bounds in terms of student participation, organisation and enthusiasm. The event is completely funded by student activity council (SAC). It was from the year 2013 that we started getting a share of SAC funds. It was in 2014 that we started with the event Flash mob to attract student participation which was obviously an instant hit! Later it was decided that the Event Exuberance would be declared open by Flash mob. The Flash mobs have always been theme oriented. And this year was no exception. The success story of Exuberance -14, 15-16 made us rethink re-plan and divide the event in two semesters. We were compelled to divide the total activities-including workshops/seminars in both semester and yet the participation graph keeps on touching new heights, with new activities added as suggested by faculty/student team Art and Intellect. A very important initiative in year 2016 by students and staff team was to

Design Diwali cards

Design Rakhi for Army men sitting on border as a small token of appreciation of their efforts and sleepless nights

The efforts put in by Art and Intellect secretary, Ms Jinal Doda and past student-chairs of event Ms Megha Ramsnehi and the entire team added extra flair and flavor to the success of event !!!

As can be seen some of the above events were solo while others were in group, so this also builds the quality in students to work in group, leadership qualities. It must be noted that some of the events were organised for faculties also in which they too took part enthusiastically. The total budget proposed for conducting above events was aprox Rs. 60000/-

Outcomes of the Event

The event was organized with a motivation to inculcate leadership skills in the students. Although faculties continuously guided, mentored and supervised the entire event, it was planned, organized and executed largely by the students who were members of Art & Intellect committee along with the General Secretary, Ladies Representative and Art and Intellect secretary Ms Jinal Doda and Ms Megha Ramsnehi. The aspiring girls and their team worked towards a common goal helped the team enhance their team working capabilities, leadership qualities and managerial skills.

The winners for all the events were from entire student fraternity signifying the level of confidence and knowledge in today's youth.

The participation from first year was an instant hit, bringing them closer to their seniors , working in unison for a common cause of overall personality development.

Apart from literary activities, three seminar were organised for students on

o Cyber Crime- The dark side of internet o Make these four years a count o Resume, Application and email writing’

. Other entertainment activities like, Tug of war, Just-a-minute games, Photo Hunt, Photo tales, Photo wizard and Ad-mad show were meant for recreation apart from bringing out the creativity in them.

The faculties also enthusiastically participated in events like Art and craft workshop, Tug of war and Just-a-minute games.

For the first time in the history of SCET, Flash mob was followed by nukkad natak based on theme of Traffic Rule in day today life after which our Principal Dr Vaishali Mungurwadi, declared Exuberance -2017 open. A team of

students danced, sang and played a drama to convey the message of Traffic sense in day today life in unison to motivate the student fraternity to come forward and participate in life with Exuberance

Working towards the common goal helped the team enhance their team working capabilities, leadership qualities and managerial skills.

In all, the Exuberance -17 has been a grand success, and the participation says it all. This event has bought students on a common platform to showcase their organizational skills.

HIGHLIGHTS OF EXUBERANCE 2017

Art & Craft initiatives taken

o Rakhi Making for Jawans :

In wake of the present scenario across border where many of our brave-hearted soldiers have lost their life and still continue to fight the proxy war waged by the enemies at borders and within the country, the team Art and Intellect has taken a initiative that SCET shall from now onwards will send our best wishes in form of Diwali cards and Rakhi to these soldiers sitting on the cold , chilling and killing borders! As a part of imitative , 100 rakhis were sent by Prof Sandhya on personal account last year and more than 110 diwali cards designed by students and faculties were sent to the Indian Army. We received a letter of appreciation as well from the Army headquarters. Beautiful Rakhis have been designed by our students which shall be sent to our soldiers in the month of August / Sept

Seminar on “Resume Writing, Application Writing and Email Writing” and “Make these four years

count!”

It is rightly said that – Show me your resume I will tell you will be hired or not ! Quite true - your resume says a lot about you, it determines whether you will be called in for an interview or not. Even writing application

and emails are also an important aspect for students to apply for a job. Taking all this into consideration the Art and Intellect committee in association with SCETAA organized a seminar on “Resume Writing, Application Writing and Email Writing”. Ms. Rachita Rasiwasia who happens to be a SCET alumni was the speaker. The seminar was organised for 3rd

and 4th year students on 4th March, 2017 9:30 am to 11:30 am at NJ seminar hall. More than 60 students
