Little later an
Indian student band from Ohio State came to Syracuse for a concert of
light Hindi film songs. A couple of years later we started showing
movies on a regular basis. The group always took the character of the
people running it: sometimes it was concerts only, or it was any movie
that would sell, or it was movies with a ‘social message.’ The
group hit a lean patch in 1993 with just 3 students—Ravi, Shalini
and Anand— keeping it going. In fact, the three came within a
whisker of throwing in the towel as they were all trying to complete
their degrees. A fresh breeze swept the organization in 1994.
We have grown a long way from
being a fountainhead of thoughts to becoming an organization that
blends thoughts into actions. We are an active body of 12-15 students
led by Radha Ganesan. We are a registered student organization at S.U.,
and also operate out of our own bank account. >> read more about our members
We often collaborate with the
student run Syracuse India Association (SIA), as well as the South
Asia Center at the Global Affairs Institute, Maxwell School of
Syracuse University. SIA has helped us run fundraisers, such as penny
box drives and movie screenings. We have co-sponsored a number of
lectures and talks with the South Asia Center. >> read
