The APOGEE English Press (AEP) sat down with the Secretary, Rohan Mittal, and the APOGEE Coordinator, Vaibhav Dixit, of RadioAktiv Club for a quick talk about the events they plan to conduct during APOGEE ’22. The club is planning to conduct Prom Night, as opposed to the two events, Gaming Night and Escape Room, that they normally conduct during APOGEE. 

The club is all set for a grand reveal of the theme for this year’s Prom Night, which will be announced with the release of the pre-registration forms. The organisers are confident that there will be at least a 100 couples attending this event. Since the event is being conducted in the summer, they had to account for the weather while deciding the theme. ‘It is easier for people to wear large gowns or suits in the winter, as opposed to the summer’ Rohan mentioned. 

Speaking about the challenges faced while preparing for this event, Vaibhav stated that the pandemic hampered the usual working of the club, as no offline events could be conducted for a long time. Aside from this, the present PoR holders have only experienced Prom Night in their first year, where they weren’t involved in the planning process. He also mentioned that it is challenging to work with first yearites, as they have negligible experience. ‘However, RadioAktiv is learning and working towards making sure that Prom Night is a robust celebration’ he stated. Putting a stop to the rumours surrounding this event, the PoR holders clarified that LGBTQ+ couples would be allowed entry. 

Rohan signed off by urging BITSians to stop speculating about what Prom Night will look like, and simply attend the event as it is an experience that everyone should have at least once.
