Well that was a whooping 24 events in all...one short of a magic 25!!! We now leave it to the juniors to ensure that, representation is made in many more events in the coming academic year and thereafter. Our seniors are known to set tough targets for the juniors to live up to. There is no doubt that juniors would rise to the occasion and carry on the legacy of Business Quizzing at PSGIM!
Thanks to all the people who have been associated with the quiz club - be it the quiz club coordinators, guys who helped us to stage the events successfully and of course the audience who are the lifeline of any quiz show!
Last but not the least; we thank Kavitha Mam, the club's faculty coordinator and our director who supported the club in all possible ways! Thank you Mam... Thank you Sir!
And for one last time, the coordinators of PSGIM Quiz club for the year 2008-09 bid adieu! We certainly miss the fun with the buzzers, the convention hall where we staged almost all the Quiz shows, and of course we miss the mad rush for chocolates... believe us...chocolates never tasted better!
P.S: Juniors can stay in touch with the Alumni Quizzers through the blog! Guest post from Alumni will continue on the blog! Keep Visiting! Keep Quizzing!
Photos of Quizzing activities would be uploaded soon!
