Carnegie Mellon Raasta Budget

FY2014 (July 1, 2013 - June 30, 2014)

CMU Raasta is a dance team committed to promoting Indian culture across campus. Through the West Indian folk dance garba-raas, we aim to spread awareness of our traditions. Based on formations and high energy, Raas involves twirling sticks called dandiyas. By performing on and off campus at dance competitions throughout the nation, we wish to exhibit the talent and diversity of Carnegie Mellon students.
