“Rock music is the expression of elemental passions, and at rock festivals it assumes a cultic character, a form of worship”

Pope Benedict XVI

Fancy yourself to be the Indian Dream Theater waiting for an opportunity to shine? Looking for that perfect launchpad to thrust you directly to the stratosphere of Indian rock? Do you have it in you to take on the best student bands of the country in the battle to the finish, and emerge unscathed from it all? Do you have it in you to throw all you've got at the heavyweights from the Asian music scene judging each note you play? Dare to live a dream? Feel the unmatched adrenaline rush of performing live. Let the world know you are ready for the big stage.

Manfest 2008 : Call For Arms - The Battle of B-Schools

Oh well, Big Daddy is here.

Call For Arms, the battle for B-School Glory is now open.

As the name suggests, it's a battle out there. And the ammo is intellect, streetsmart instinct, and needless to add, business acumen. Not for the weak-hearted, it's the ultimate test of whatever one's learnt in B-schools... and outside.

Teams from each of the top B-schools in the country will be slugging it out on all possible fronts. Of course there are the obvious aspects of management - Fin, Mark, Strat, HR etc to deal with, but there's a lot more too! ( You don't want me giving it all away now, do you?)

They'll be thoroughly tested and (I know it's starting to sound cliched) only the best shall walk away with the glory.

And the cash, of course! All 1,50,000 of it.

Feel you have it in you to play for you insti's pride? Then check out the details here, or log on to www.iimlmanfest.com or drop in a line at ... callforarms.iimlmanfest@gmail.com

Treatise - The International Thought Challenge

It is sweet to serve one's country by deeds, and it is not absurd to serve her by words. ~Sallust

Somewhere between all the eulogies and the tributes being lauded upon India by critic and commoner alike, deep inside us we know that it is not all that it’s being made out to be.

Not that it hasn't achieved a considerable lot in the past years, it has. It’s just that we know it could have done better. Much Better. And it still can.

It just needs a plan. And that's where you come in.

But of course, it comes with a price, er… prize we mean. Yes, USD 3000. That’s about Rs. 1,20,000 for the numerically challenged.
