As any of you who live within a ten mile radius of Royal Holloway will know, it is Fresher’s Week. New students from across the country and indeed the globe are arriving to begin their university courses and will no doubt be feeling a little overwhelmed to say the least. To help them get off to a fantastic start there is a whole host of activities to sign up for and get stuck straight in to. One of them which I think is set to be really interesting and ‘must do’ for any budding journalist is the Founder Expose.
The Founder Newspaper is an independent publication set up at Royal Holloway in 2006. Since then it has gone from strength to strength and I would strongly recommend new and returning students to get involved. Details can be found at the Founder Expose.
I hope that many a keen journalist will sign up and hopefully those of a political mind will stir up a bit of debate. Perhaps one might begin with: ‘The meaning of Labour, Discuss” - there is always room for (very) short stories.
Enjoy,
Chris
