Mnemon is the History Society of the Shiv Nadar University. This society believes that everyone has a sense of the past and an understanding of history. Mnemon seeks to inculcate a passion for history within one and all, using which they may interrogate their understandings of the past and have a dialogue with them. Our vision is to create a comfortable space for all to interact and we encourage a multi-disciplinary perspective on history. In particular, we seek to initiate a sustained a dialogue between students of various departments. Our objective is to create a sphere within the university where all kinds of questions are asked and thought about collectively, and where we critically challenge our taken-for-granted assumptions and people and the world around us. Throughout the year, we organise talks, film screenings, student quizzes and other activities. We also help first-year students acquain themselves with the department and have a Student Mentor initiative. If you would like to contact us, our official email is mnemon@snu.edu.in.
