CORE 09 : The next generation

2008 is over.
And sadly, CORE didn't perform in various symposiums as it did in 2007.
But getting officiated and conducting our own inter-school symposium was a great milestone for CORE.

2009 is coming, and this year we have to make sure that our main focus is higher and greater than performing well and conducting a great symposium.
We have to pave way for the coming batches.

We have to make sure that 10 years down the line, each and every school across the city fears and respects DPS Dwarka as a competitor in the field of computers, as it does today.

We have to make sure that its "not I, but us." We have to realize that the most effective way to establish a stronghold in the inter-school circuit is to be consistent. The most well known schools across the city are known not because of their programmers, or quizzers, or gamers, or multimedia experts. These people just come and go.
These schools are known because they have repeatedly produced programmers, quizzers, gamers and multimedia experts of a great class, who over the period of time have strengthened their school and their club's reputation.

CORE is a very fortunate club. Over 4-5 batches, it has had many HIGHLY devoted members who have undoubtedly put CORE ahead of many things in life. In fact I believe that CORE should actually stand for CORE Obsessed Radical Enthusiasts.
We are fortunate that by the time CORE was actually officially launched, it was already a well known name across the inter-school circuit.

Now we have to take the next step. We have to become far-sighted. We have to ensure that CORE doesn't become a club that runs because only a few highly talented people, but a club that produces more and more of such talent non-stop.
In other words, CORE shouldn't come out of talent; talent should come out of CORE.
A club running because of some talent can not last for long.
All of us have to leave this school one day.
But before we go, we have to make sure that the fear of CORE and respect for CORE never dies.



Please start giving in your suggestions. We have to start as early as possible in the upcoming session.




I am reinstating some points that some of the members of CORE have already put forward

• We should conduct an intra-school level event(most probably in May), in which we can select really deserving people in an unbiased way. We shouldn't recruit more than 10 people, but at the same time we shoul give preference to juniors. We should definitely get 1-2 students from classes 6-8th, because the earlier they start getting exposure, the better it is. And our focus should also be on going to be class 10th and class 11th, as even though they are the future of the club, we don't have enough members from those batches.
  
• Before conductin this intra-school event, we should conduct seminars and workshops in various fields of computers to tell students more deeply what computer science and what CORE is about.
