Every year in March-April, RI(JC) and HCI jointly organize Astrigue Convention and Challenge, a two-part program which first equips students with necessary background in Astronomy, then pits them in a competition of trivia and conceptual knowledge application. If you are new to Astronomy, this is a great way to learn more!

2013's Astrigue Convention was held on 6th and 13th April at HCI (College), and Astrigue Challenge on 20th April at RI (JC). For more information, contact the organizers at astrigue2013 [at] gmail.com.
