Gravity Club

The motto of Gravity club is "the force that binds us" .

The club was formed to encourage integrated activities for the students on campus. NISH has a diverse population. Of the total of about 300 students, two-third attend the Degree (HI) program that admits only deaf and hard of hearing students. The remaining are hearing students and they attend the Audiology and Speech Language degree and post-graduate program. Men to women ratio also goes on similar lines.

Gravity Club was launched on March 24, 2011 organizing its first activity - a painting competition for the students. The students divided into 4 teams - Leo, Taurus, Acquarius and Scorpio - were given a canvas each on which they etched charcoal drawings. The theme for the event was 'Unity is Strength'. They were given a three quarter of an hour in which they had to complete their drawings. The team - Acquarius emerged the winners.
