Intra-Department Literary Quiz - A Report

The Intra-Department Quiz Competition took off to a flying start this morning at around 11:50 am. The programme started with the invocation by Dr.Ann Thomas, followed by the customary welcome address. 

Prof.Abitha opened the first round with a sensational quiz on World Classics, and Prof.David gave the students a challenge with his rounds on British Literature. Dr.Ganesh led the interesting round on Indian Writing in English, followed by Prof.DC who quizzed the students on American Literature and Quotations.

The Video round in session...

Next in line was the Video Round on famous English Classics, conducted by Dr.Ganesh, wherein ten great classics were screened, (in the newly bought projector screen!) and students answered them with elan. 

The last round - Rapid Fire, was conducted by Prof.Rufus, wherein five questions were asked in quick succession to each of the six teams, and in this round the II MA team pulled up a surprise, winning hands down the I Prize, thus pocketing Rs.200 each, [although there was a neck-and-neck-tie between II BA English and II MAs till the previous round].

The II BA team won the second prize, bagging Rs.150 each,

and the III BA team won the third prize, bagging Rs.100 each.
