Review of Newtonian at Kirori Mal College on 15th-16th February, 2012
Results of Newtonian(.pdf file)
TACHYONS, The Physics Society, Kirori Mal College, organized its Academic Festival – NEWTONIAN-2012, on the 15th–16th, February 2012.
Since its inception, some 19 years ago, NEWTONIAN has been occupying a place of great importance in the annual curricular events of the Delhi University, providing a common platform for students to share their knowledge and talent, thereby facilitating a greater exchange of knowledge among them and the general public on the whole.
The 20th Newtonian broke all the participation record of previous time, all our PLT’s (Physics Lab Theatre) were booked. Day one began with the debate based on the topic ‘The search for God particle should end’ which had 20 participants; everybody presenting their views diligently making it difficult for the judges to decide whom to choose the best. This was followed by General Quiz, a whopping 90 teams filled all our venues and the volunteers had a tough time first managing and then selecting only 6 teams for the second round out of that huge lot. Then was Brain Teasers, which had 20 people, was a logical reasoning event; thanks and boo’s for the person behind this event as the person who won got only 1.5 out of 20!!!
Day two began with the Science Quiz organised by Trajectory Education which had around 60 teams and all of them had a mind boggling time finding answers to the problems. It was followed by Paper Presentation having 20 participants. Each of them delivered such presentations that the judges had to take a half an hour break so as to decide who won as every presentation was near perfect content wise and delivery wise. The second day ended with the adventurous Scavenger Hunt in which 35 teams participated; every team had to run through all the North campus so as to complete the tasks.
It was a fest to remember, for a science fest to receive so much participation from all over Delhi and NCR region and being a part of one was amazing. Every volunteer wearing the funky Newtonian t-shirt, the ‘Men in White’ and our professors and lab staff made this fest a legendary one in. Celebrating science and enjoying the team work was the thing which touched everyone’s heart.

Review of ESYA 11 @ IIIT, Delhi
Download all the results of ESYA 11 (PDF File, 2MB)
ESYA’11 was the first ever tech fest organized by Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (IIIT-D). Esya, the word meaning exploration, was truly one of its kind – it was indeed a discovery of talents of sorts! The convenor Naman Jain, along with his team of organizers, though being amateurs, put up a great show and made it a grand success. The best part was that there was something for everybody, as the events were not limited to technical and engineering fields (as one would usually expect), but a lot more diverse. Events ranged from social entrepreneurship to B-Plan, to exciting games for avid PS3 gamers, to mobile programming and a lot more. An interesting part of the fest was that a Blood Donation Camp was organized – a thought provoking event giving the event a more humane touch that forces one to stop for a moment and contribute their bit for the society and the ailing.
Okay, now let’s have a quick look at some interesting facts about the event:
- There was a total of 14 events organized
- A total of 1000 people participated in 3 events alone with their major success being Hunt-IT, seeing a participation of 300 students from across different colleges.
- XQuizIT saw a participation of more than 80 teams.
- There were grand prizes given away to the proud winners.
- A proper security system with 2 PCR Vans was maintained to ensure smooth functioning of the whole 3-Day event.
Now for a few words straight from the horse’s mouth. The convenor, Naman Jain, on being asked about his experience of the show delightfully said, “These few weeks have been really tiring as we have been working really hard, but looking at the enthusiasm of the participants, we feel motivated!”
All in all, it was a well organized and well executed event.

Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (IIIT-D) proudly presents its first ever tech fest, ESYA ’11 – Exploring Infinity and Beyond, being organized on the 3rd and 4th of September 2011.

True to its name, Esya is not just another science and technology competition, but a unique event aiming at nurturing the ideas of today’s young minds in the form of healthy competition in different fields of technology and innovation. What really sets it apart from all other college events is its being a unique extravaganza dedicated exclusively to exploring the omnipresence of Information Technology in all spheres of life.
With creativity and the drive to innovate for a positive impact on the society as its priorities, Esya resolves to make a difference by helping students present their ideas and skills in the best possible manner. It doesn’t just help in the honing of their innate capabilities, but also gives its participants amazing opportunities for ample exposure to the diversity of work being done in various fields of Computer Science, through seminars and workshops involving interaction with professionals from the industry.
