23rd April 2018 witnessed the Science Symposium on pollution and its effects on our quality of life. It was one of the most interactive and enriching sessions to be delivered on the topic. Organized by MMD, Nasik, it was chaired by Dr. Shalini Prabhu, one of India's renowned environmentalist and scholar. It was a two part session, with the morning session from 9:30 to 1:30 and a longer afternoon session from 2:30 till 6:00 pm. Students who were interested to speak were given a time slot for presenting their views on the topic.
The chief speaker enlightened us on the topic with various anecdotes from her personal life. She talked about the differences she sees in her children's childhoods compared to her own. She talked about how pollution is much broader than what we usually consider it to be. Light pollution, a relatively new concept, is as much dangerous as all other forms of pollution, affecting our sleep cycles. The session was followed by a talk by students from secondary and higher secondary school, voicing out their opinions on the topic.
On a whole, the symposium was thoroughly enjoyable to both the faculty and the students. The one day programme was concluded by a question and answer session and vote of thanks by Miss. Daya Sengupta, Vice-Principal.
