When I first joined INTI in 2008, I joined the Editorial Board hoping to bring a new brand of journalism to this university. I rose through the ranks at the club and was soon editor of one of INTI’s oldest clubs. Before the days of INTI Vybes, IMPAC or even Adventure Club, Editorial Board (under the stewardship of the English Language Society) was writing stories for the INTI population.
I went on to other ventures after my tenure as Editor but my love of journalism never eroded. The long life of Editorial Board recently came to an end, the club slowly faded away into the depths of history when the newly elected 15th INTIMA announced that the club was officially declared inactive. In other words, the club I had grown to love is now dead.
Upon returning from my internship, I started a student based newspaper focused on online material to cater to the students. With help from a small but helpful interim committee, we created the Fourth Estate.
Now the fourth estate is a literary term for the press, a societal or political force. That is what this paper promises to deliver. We will strive to provide students of INTI all the information you need on what’s happening in and around INTI.
We are always on the lookout for more writers and if you would like to contribute, we’d love to have you.
