Debate Club or Mnemon: The History Society 

The Debate Club looks toward inspiring the spirit of formal and logical debate with those who would benefit the most from it - the future decision-makers of an increasingly democratic world. After all, most political philosophies of the modern world were built on the ramblings of emphatic debaters!

Mnemon is the History Society of the GITS CE. This society believes that everyone has a sense of the past and an understanding of history. Mnemon seeks to inculcate a passion for history within one and all, using which they may interrogate their understandings of the past and have a dialogue with them. Our vision is to create a comfortable space for all to interact and we encourage a multi-disciplinary perspective on history. In particular,  we seek to initiate a sustained a dialogue between students of various departments. Our objective is to create a sphere within the university where all kinds of questions are asked and thought about collectively, and where we critically challenge our taken-for-granted assumptions and people and the world around us. Throughout the year, we organise talks, film screenings, student quizzes and other activities. We also help first-year students acquain themselves with the department and have a Student Mentor initiative.
