Diwali When: Friday, November 9, 2007 Fireworks at 9 pm!! __________________________________________
Diwali, also known as Deepavali, is a widely celebrated Hindu event. Often called the Festival of Lights, Diwali is celebrated by lighting lamps, or diyas, to represent the triumph of good over evil and light over darkness. Diwali, sometimes regarded as the Indian New Year, is a celebration of life and hope for mankind. Come celebrate Diwali FREE with Hindu Students Council and enjoy the games, contests, and free T-shirts. We will continue the tradition of last year by ending our event with fireworks. We are the first and only student organization to have a fireworks display on campus. Sign up to participate in a Diwali contest! |
