Minerva: The Quiz Society

Established in 2012, Minerva, the quizzing society of Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, draws its name and inspiration from the Roman goddess of wisdom, strategy, and intellect. True to its namesake, the society has grown into a vibrant space for knowledge, curiosity, and critical thinking within the Delhi University quizzing circuit.

At Minerva, quizzing is more than just a competition; it is a culture we nurture. We are dedicated to building a strong foundation for both seasoned and new quizzers alike. Through regular monthly sessions, we work on sharpening skills, broadening knowledge, and encouraging teamwork. Our members actively represent the college at various inter-college quizzes, often bringing home accolades and recognition.

Our annual event, Inquilab, stands as a celebration of intellect and enthusiasm. It brings together quiz enthusiasts from across Delhi NCR and is a major fixture in the college’s co-curricular calendar. Over the years, Minerva has also collaborated with several other college societies including the Women Development Cell (WDC) for theme-based quizzes on gender and social issues, Filmtantra for cinema and pop culture quizzes, and Historia, the History Society of SBSC, for history-focused events and quizzes. We have also joined hands with quiz societies of other colleges to foster a more engaging and collaborative quizzing culture.

Minerva continues to thrive as a space where questions lead to exploration, and knowledge
is pursued with passion and purpose.
