3) Group items will be given preference over solo performances except in the case where solo is needed e.g., sitar recital can be solo, most Bollywood dances should be groups.

4) We recommend programs such as skits, plays, etc. in addition to the songs and dances, so we can illustrate our cultural diversity.

5) In case of duplicate items submitted, preference will be given to the first submission.

6) Each program should be limited to less than 5 minutes, except in unique situations with larger groups, depending on the nature of the program (for instance, it will be difficult to have skits, dramas etc. in less than 5 minutes). Each such scenario will need to be detailed so the committee can make an informed decision.

7) We are hoping to have young adults and teens introduce the programs.  If you are interested in having your kids announce the programs (children 13 years of age or older), please let us know

8) CSI  Events committee will decide the FINAL program flow.
