They’ve done it before, and they’ve done it in style! This time, however, it’s even more special than it usually is! A decade of brilliance leads up to the 10th edition of Le’gala, the inter-collegiate literary and cultural festival of the NLSIU student body. If there wasn’t a reason to mark off November 11th to 13th December 16th to 18th on your calendar as red-letter days, you have one now – miss this festival, and you miss one of the most vibrant student activities in the country! The fest features a whole range of activities from quizzes, jamming, dramatics, song 'n' dance to a large number of informals.
