RK Hall Phot Album -- Open IIT

OPEN IIT/INTER-HALL/MISC

Student activities are continual around the year in the form of inter-hall, intra-hall, open IIT events. These are meant to keep us busy when we don't study - which is almost all the time. Participation and enthusiasm associated with these events are high as Kharagpur offers us few other places for solace.

The fall semester features the open IIT events, which are used to select teams to represent the Institute in sports and cultural events. Open IIT cultural events culminate in our magnum opus 'The Spring-fest'.

The Spring semester features the intra-hall events which form a basis for the team selection for the Inter-Hall events. Inter-Hall events pit the best talent from each hall to win pride and glory for the hall. At stake are the Sports General Championship (GC) and the Soc-Cult GC. Hall jingoism is at the peak at this time of the year and no opportunity is lost to display ones superiority over the other (Student shows in Netaji are the best entertainment during this time). Most victories are marked by a VP. (Even though I could be crucified for saying this, I should add, "most victories by men". However, in retraction I might add that there was atleast one VP by SN hall in my memory. They tried to enter Patel Hall....need I say more ?)

This section could be spiced up with many more photographs, if you would like to contribute, please let me know

Lacking a proper music room, practice sessions were held outside the common room in those days (spring 1991).Recently, the small mess has been turned into a music room.

Footer (soccer to you americanized rascals) between B and C block. This was a special occasion, when it had rained the whole day and we got to play our own version of water polo.
