On November 1, the Seidenberg School of Computer Science and Information Systems gathered to celebrate Diwali at �鶹��ý. Diwali, India�鶹��ý�s biggest holiday and also known as the Festival of Lights, is a Hindu tradition that symbolizes the victory of light over darkness and good over evil, bringing a message of hope and renewal. This vibrant and cherished tradition within the Seidenberg community was held at the Design Factory space in 15 Beekman, and the event welcomed students, faculty, and staff for an evening filled with cultural experiences, laughter, and connection.

One of the standout activities of the event was an intricate rangoli showcase, for which student attendees showcased their artistic talent and cultural heritage by designing their own rangolis and putting them on display. The students who participated were rewarded with exclusive Seidenberg merch! The event guests also enjoyed an assortment of traditional Indian foods, adding authentic flavors to the festivities and enhancing the communal spirit.

This celebration is a testament to the strong bond between Seidenberg and its Indian student community. Each year, celebrating Diwali provides an opportunity for students to share their culture and traditions, fostering deeper connections and mutual appreciation within the school. Special thanks go to the dedicated Seidenberg students who made this year�鶹��ý�s celebration a success, showcasing their creativity and organizational talent.

Celebrating the cultures of our diverse population is one of the many reasons students consider Seidenberg their home away from home. Building an inclusive environment where students feel seen, supported, and celebrated is part of our mission. These moments not only honor cultural heritage but also strengthen the school�鶹��ý�s close-knit community, making it a true home for students from all backgrounds.
