Sporting events at CANTATA 2014. Using
our management skills to turn our passion and interest in sports to organize
the events was the best experience ever. We worked under the guidance of the
Physical Director Dileep and Professors Sudhindra and Krishna who guided us
well through-out. Facilitating students to take part and win in Track and Field
events was our goal which we have achieved fairly well. ”

Coordinators
“I was given
the responsibility of being a Fun zone co-ordinator. True to its name, the
event comprised five zones namely Salka, Tug of War, Blind navigation, Brain
Scrum and Crazy hurdles which ensured that the CUIM family had a wonderful time
and a lot of fun. The three hour session which happened during the afternoon
was managed within the stipulated time. I had to ensure that the zones stuck to
the time without compromising on the planned rounds in each of the zones. The
participants were given chocolates for winning for "FUN".
My learning: Skills of
effective communication and listening. To pay attention to details. To
manage unexpected situations tactfully.To stick to targets and meet them
irrespective of the situation.”

function of CANTATA 2014started at 5.00 pm. It included the prize distribution
of Blossom, Altius and Cantata. External fest and Placement Coordinators were
facilitated as well. The cultural performances included a song by Shifin and
group and by JAB. There were dances by Red Chillies group,Ridhi group, Parichay
and Vasu and Vishnu group. The function ended with a special applause for the
entire CANTATA team for their efforts. Then followed the DJ by Rajan Sir. The
team work and coordination of stage, technical and cultural team resulted in
success of the event.”
Archita Jha, Stage and
Valediction Coordinator
“As Overall
Student Coordinators, we had the uphill task of getting everyone together and
getting things done. A constraint was the Mid Sem exams which happened two days
before the event. But with a dedicated team and superb guidance from our
faculty coordinators we were able to pull it off. We worked as a team and in
tandem with each other’s decisions. We set out clearly defined job roles and
responsibilities to each POC which helped in proper execution. Effective and
constant communication at every stage was very essential. You are held
responsible for your team’s performance and so we had to make sure all the teams
were going according to the schedule and plan. Overall a true learning
experience for us”
