The Hindu Student Association hosted its annual celebration of Holi, the festival of colors, on the LBJ Lawn Sunday. During Holi celebrations, participants throw colored powder, known as rang, and water on each other. The festival celebrates the arrival of spring and the victory of good over evil on the day of the full moon, according to members of the group. Check out our slideshow of Holi 2015 below.
