TELL HER ABOUT IT..

We needed someone students could easily write their problems to…. and who’s better than a super secretive agony aunt…

The Beginning…

It all started with a free lecture… a normal day at college teachers teaching, students chatting, chilling in the campus.. we had a free lecture so we were casually discussing the series we used to follow on disney and cartoon network.. {Lizzie Mcguire, Dexter’s labrotary, Powerpuff Girls, Zack and Cody} the last one suddenly reminded me of an episode where Zack played agony aunt for the school newspaper… and i casually stated hey guys lets start a college newsletter, and the response i got as usual was” ha chal lets do it….it sounds really cool” that’s it we were out of the class grabbing permissions from the teachers, discussing the articles to be written, how will the newsletter look like, the printing, and it went on…………. the start was EPIC..

We’ve printed 5 issues till now and are continuing to work on the 6th one……

Maniben Nanavati Women’s College

In our College the Advanced Learners are offered challenges in the form of Research Projects and support for initiatives like ‘Campus Express’ which is college newsletter of the students, by the students and for the students. Campus Express is a special feature of the college as it is an Advanced Learners initiative in the truest sense of the term. It is a spontaneous overflow of a creative need is a group of students and has helped to home writing skills as well as values like team work, responsibility, interviewing skills and work ethics, positive communication etc.

 

A group of 6 students of B.A. I (English) took the initiative of approaching the English teacher with the request they be given permission and support to support a Student’s news letter. This group had already demonstrated that they were a cut above the rest in writing and speaking skills. They had extensive exposure to language through books, films etc. they took up a challenge of producing a news letter every month. They had freedom to choose their own content. They had complete autonomy in the production process, but a few guidelines were given by the teacher, no harm to be done to the colleges image or any offence given to any individual, language used could be ‘student friendly’  but correctness of spellings etc should be maintained. 5 issues have been brought out and the response has been very positive.
