Zeitgeist, the Literary, Quizzing, and Activities Club of IIM Shillong was formed in 2017 to encourage students to expand their knowledge and aid in the quest of the Institute to become one of the centres of excellence in the country. To develop and hone the literary skills of the students, several other activities such as parliamentary debates, oratory and literary events are organized aligning with the Club’s mission to develop, foster, and nurture literary, debating, quizzing, and creative culture in the students of IIM Shillong.

About the Club

Zenith: The club’s flagship event, Zenith, includes various inter-college events and panel discussions that blends the lines of art, literature and corporate. It includes the following four competitions:

  • Karmic Quest: A fast-paced quiz competition testing knowledge, logic and lateral thinking.
  • Vichar Gatha: A storytelling challenge where teams craft compelling narratives based on assigned themes.
  • Karam Vaad: A debate competition that explores thought-provoking topics on careers, capitalism and ethics.
  • Chitra Sangam: A creative design contest where teams blend two movies or shows into a single poster.
