[edit] Waves
The annual cultural fest of BITS-Pilani, Goa campus(BPGC), started in 2005 is today considered the biggest inter college cultural meet in goa.It has grown from being an intra-college fest in ’05 to going fully inter college in the second year itself.
[edit] Waves ’05
A modest beginning –Waves 2005 was an intra college(inter hostel) event of BPGC. “ride the waves”-the theme for the event set the mood for the kind of inter hostel contests that have now come to be part of Zephyr, the annual inter hostel fest; now considered a prelude to waves. The event took the participants for a ride through a series of events starting from Dance to Dramatics ,Music to Mime ,Fashion parade to fine arts. In the first year of its inception BPGC set the trend for the coming generations and ’06 and ’07 thus followed.
[edit] Waves ’06
”Take the plunge”-the theme of waves ’06 had a pun intended. It was a remarkable plunge from a modest intra –college to an inter-college event in just two years of the college’s establishment. As before ,there were a sequence of cultural and literary events. The sponsorship finally went external. The inauguration ceremony also included release of the first official short film presentation by the college.
[edit] Waves ’07: urban chaos
Being in the third year and now having a student strength of about 1800, Waves ’07 is expected to be the most involving and intense event the new campus has ever seen.
A clear hierarchy has been put in place; a team of event managers, promoters, sponsor hunters, venue managers and volunteers has been constituted to manage the fest; entry for which is open this time.
The last week of January also saw the publicity department taking a radical decision of departing from the happy aquatic mood otherwise suggested by the name “Waves” and going for a theme tentatively being called “urban chaos”: supposedly inspired from the early 90’s hip hop yankee street culture.
