Shwetima, a student of B.Tech CSE, 6th Sem who came from Delhi to participate in dance workshop said, "We learnt a lot throughout the workshop and the kind of approach applied in was tremendous. I learnt some basic traits of dancing which further refined my present knowledge about dance. It has proved to be an enriching experience that I would remember Students who performed extraordinary well during the workshop would be further groomed by the University." In the 1st phase these students would be attending famous Dalhousie Summer Camp, which is an annual national level event. The 2nd phase would be providing these students with the opportunity to participate in the Youth Festival and represent the University.
On the success of the event Executive Dean said, "Most of time students are busy in their curriculum and academic activities and do not give too much thrust to other end of grooming, which is cultural events. To counter this and provide the students explore other areas of personality development this workshop was organized. Seeing the success of the event the University has planned to organize this workshop on an annual basis."
