Membership

Diya has a membership of around 200 undergraduate and graduate students, both American-born and international. It envisions itself as a forum for cultural exchange, an idea stretching back to the early days of its existence: South Asian Americans are Americans who can trace their ancestry to the Indian subcontinent, often known as South Asia. ...

"I have always been aware of my culture, but [Diya] gives me a chance to express my culture that I wouldn't be able to do without. [It also] allows me to share my culture with others." --Adithya Cattamanchi, Trinity '97, in 1995. [1]

History of Diya

An organization named the Duke Indian Association, or DIA, was founded many years ago by a small group of Duke undergraduate students. In 1995, several Indian members decided to expand the scope of the organization to draw in all of the nations and cultures of South Asia. Thus, the club description was broadened, and DIA was renamed Diya, which is a Hindi word meaning "light." Hindi (Devanagari: हिन्दी or हिंदी; IPA: ), an Indo-European language spoken mainly in northern and central India, is the official language of the Union government of India [1][2]. It is part of a dialect continuum of the Indic family, bounded on the northwest and west by Punjabi, Sindhi, Urdu, and Gujarati...

Hindi major controversy

In 1995, the proposal of a Hindi language major erupted into controversy when two undergraduates wrote letters [2] to The Chronicle, the student newspaper. They advised against the beginning of a Hindi major, "as it is a language spoken in a Third World country overwrought by disease and poverty," and claiming that, "The values of the West... are superior to the values of a primitive, impoverished country like India. One stated, Hindi (Devanagari: हिन्दी or हिंदी; IPA: ), an Indo-European language spoken mainly in northern and central India, is the official language of the Union government of India [1][2]. It is part of a dialect continuum of the Indic family, bounded on the northwest and west by Punjabi, Sindhi, Urdu, and Gujarati... The header of The Chronicles online edition The Chronicle is the student newspaper at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. ...

The British gave India more than just roads, medicine, science and all the values of the West. Perhaps their greatest gift of all was the English language itself. English, not Hindi, is the language of the best India has to offer in every field. Those who truly wish to enjoy the "richness" of Indian culture would do better to learn English than Hindi.

A broad range of students and faculty, both Diya-affiliated and not, wrote letters in response, defending the value of studying Hindi and India [3], decrying what they perceived as ethnocentrism, and began calls for discussion of a South Asian studies curriculum [4]. Others responded, calling for an examination of the facts and actual interest in a Hindi major, as well as defending the two students right to express an unpopular opinion [5]. Ethnocentrism or ethnocentricity is the tendency to look at the world primarily from the perspective of ones own culture. ...

For its part, Diya coordinated a letter-writing campaign from Duke and externally, held meetings, and surveyed students about the popularity of a Hindi major [6]. The proposed major was eventually approved in 2000, and Diya's role was recognized as instrumental [7]. See article [8] for more details. This article is about the year 2000. ...

Other Issues

Diya has also been a voice in the immense number of campus discussions over the years on multiculturalism, self-segregation [9], and equal opportunity. Particular issues include racially separated housing [10], an anti-reparations advertisement in the campus newspaper [11], campus hate crimes and police harassment [12], the scope of multicultural organizations like the now-passed group SPECTRUM, and fraternity parties that seemed to mock African-American and Latino students [13].

Events

Diya divides its functions into four major categories of events: community service, cultural, political, and social.

Awaaz

The most famous of Diya's signature events is Awaaz, the fall cultural show. Awaaz began in 1984, though it was then named Diwali, after the Hindu festival of light. In its first year, it was relegated to the commons room in Giles Dormitory on East Campus. However, as it grew in size and popularity, it moved to Brodie Gymnasium and then in 1998 to Page Auditorium, where it currently resides. In spring 2001, Diya members decided to change the name of the show to Awaaz, meaning "voice" in Hindi, in an attempt to broaden the participation and appeal of the event. Diwali, also called Deepavali, is a major Hindu festival that is very significant in Hinduism, Sikhism and Jainism. ... This article discusses the adherents of Hinduism. ... 1998 (MCMXCVIII) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar, and was designated the International Year of the Ocean. ... 2001 (MMI) was a common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Today, Awaaz is the largest student-run event on campus, with over two hundred performers and over two thousand attendees. The two-night extravaganza sells out the 1200-seat Page Auditorium every year. Diya serves guests a catered dinner in Duke's Great Hall before the show, then directs them to the auditorium to see a three-hour performance of dancing, singing, skits and videos. The emcees and performers of Awaaz are selected from the student body via tryout. By far, the most notable emcees took the stage in the past three years, which was a revolutionary time for Awaaz.

Diya plans monthly community service activities in the Triangle area for its membership, occasionally collaborating with the South Asian student associations at UNC and NC State. In October, Diya participates in Be The Change Day, a national day of service to honor the life of Mahatma Gandhi.

As part of national coordinated campaigns, Diya occasionally holds charitable events, such as a bone marrow drive, for South Asian Americans [16]. It has also fundraised and promoted awareness for tragedies affecting South Asians or the South Asian region, such as the Indian earthquake of 2001 [17], the South Asian tsunami of 2004 [18], and the Pakistan earthquake of 2005.

Cultural

Diya holds South Asian Awareness Week in the spring, an annual event that began in 1997 [20]. SAAW brings exhibitions of culture like mehndi decoration, cooking demonstrations, movies, dinners, and performances to campus in an attempt to engage the broader Duke community in South Asian culture. Diya has also brought a variety of cultural speakers and performers to Duke, ranging from social activist Arun Gandhi to author Chitra Divakaruni. Mehndi on a hand Mehndi (or mehendi or mehandi or mylanji) is the application of henna (Hindustani: हेना حنا) as a temporary form of skin decoration, most popular in South Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Somaliland as well as expatriate communities from these areas. ...
