Diwali 2009

Hello All,

This year, we have diwali on 17th Oct, around 3 weeks from now and the examination of MSc students will start a week after the diwali. I was wondering if we can have diwali celebration a week after the exam so that the 1st year MSc students can happily participate.

apart from the date, there are many other discussion required to have a successful diwali celebration. I would like to suggest to meet on coming Wed, 30 Sep, 18:00 on the first floor of EWI building (electrical, computer, and mathematics department), just like we did last year.

All performers, volunteers, enthusiastic people, please come forward and meet up so that we can exchange the ideas and start preparing for the celebration. Please confirm if Wed evening is suitable for most of you to meet up in TUD.

Cheers,
Ashish
