Thapar Poetry Society

The Poetic Season begins

Amidst the shades of trees laden with leaves, this poetry season in Thapar University began as the first meeting of society took place in F- lawns of the University. "Spin a Yarn" a story making game was played in its various modified forms, as suggested by our new members (one of whom was inspired by "Family Guy" series on T.V.). Apart from this,  discussion on what styles of poetry writing members prefer was held.

Information on the forthcoming events of poetry society which are, POETRY COMICS & POETRY SLAM was given to the participants of the meeting.

Avant Garde (the annual LITSOC magazine) was given to attendants in order to make them aware of LITSOC culture at Thapar (specially poetry).

It was all in all, an exciting beginning and Thapar Poetry Society hopes to keep this excitement alive this season.
