Down Sterling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Down Sterling was the name of the Loyola College's cultural festival before being cancelled for various reasons. It was named after the college's well-known rock band[1] - Down Sterling.

The Hindu reported about this event:

"There was a famous inter-collegiate cultural festival, held annually in Loyola College, which had been named after Sterling Road — Down Sterling. Today the cultural fest is no more than a memory. It was scrapped more than a decade ago as it turned into a hot bed of inter-collegiate violence.[2]" Year after Year Students Union of the college tries to bring back the prestigious event but are not given a go from the management. It's been 20 years since it's been sacked.

As of 2010 the name of the cultural event in Loyola is Ovations which is India's Biggest Intra-Collegiate event and is held at a whopping expense.[4]
