Bidding Adieu...

Oh… It’s the time of the farewell, as we near the end of the academic year. The farewell night was filled with emotions as we thanked our seniors for their support that started even before we stepped in to BIM. Its been a wonderful year filled with fun and a lot of learning giving new experiences to everyone. The seniors in return thanked us for a wonderful farewell night and how they were filled with nostalgia of their first days at BIM and every one of them remembered their most memorable moments of the last two years and everyone did not want their time at BIM to come to an end. All in all Farewell night was a testament to the strong bond between the students of both years and it also was a shining example of how everyone who has come to BIM will always associated his or her fond memories with BIM and that’s the most important reason that our Alumni also turn up years after they have left BIM.


“Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean We'll miss you Until we meet again….”

FINANCE UTSAV

For all those people who talk in a language of the Finance with words interspersed with terms like CDO, LIBOR etc etc... This will be a post of interest, The Flagship event of the Finclub, FINANCE UTSAV just got over after filling up everyone's life with equations and equity in equal proportion. The month long event started on March 7th and was designed to enthrall, captivate, stimulate and force the students to apply their existing knowledge and also to be more equipped with financial skills.


There were a whole basket of events to test the all-round skills, YUDHVIDYA, is the main crowd puller, eagerly awaited by the the finance-inclined students, affectionately (???) called as FinFreaks by the BIM population. This was the event where teams battle over two rounds as they analyze the balance sheets of organizations and take decisions for them to maximize profit. Special lectures were also organized as a part of the event. FinGuns, a two round quiz testing both current awareness as well as reasoning skills also was conducted. Bulls and Bears tested the stock market knowledge and decision making skills of BIM Students. Chakravyuh, the online treasure hunt also saw students participating in hordes and pulling their hair out trying to connect the clues and get the answers to reach the final level.

Finclub also came with a magazine called FINZINE, with a loads of info on the world of finance which can also be a ready-reckoner of sorts for all the students.

Let the Games begin…

BIM just saw the most colorful and exciting sports event of the year come to an end. We just witnessed 8 teams battle it out in our own version of IPL, BIM’s Sundararaghavan cricket tournament. Cricket always brings out the best out of students and it saw even the studious of the most studious students come out swinging their bats to hit runs. Teams from both PGP I and PGP II participated with vigor with loads of professionalism with coming up with funny team names like Zeros, Designing their own jerseys and even to the extent of naming Physios in the team roster.

All the matches saw some beautiful batting and were filled with action right till the end, students became heroes overnight with scoring crucial runs and taking catches diving in mid air. And why only boys should have fun? Girls also came in droves and had their own teams and had an unforgettable final match with both teams fighting till the last ball of the match. The overall Winners were Royal stags and the runners were Kshatriyas. All in the entire Cricket tournament was a great success with students staying till late night to catch the match action. Kudos to sportscom for conducting this event and making it a grand success.
