Goa University unveils quarterly News Bulletin HERALD REPORTER PANJIM, MAY 4 Goa University has come out with its first quarterly News Bulletin (January-March) to disseminate information about the university and from the next issue has proposed to appoint student reporters to write about the programmes in their respective departments. Assistant Registrar-Public Relations GU Rajesh Bhatikar said the basic idea behind the bulletin was to portray not just the activities happening at the university but also its strengths. Keeping this in mind we think student reporters from each department would do a good job in covering workshops, seminars, guest lectures and other activities happening on the campus, he mentioned. “For the coming issue which will be out in July when the next academic year begins the bulletin will have several reports written by the university’s student reporters,” he stated. He said the April-June issue would be different wherein more focus would be laid on the programmes of the different departments at the university. “Since the said period is time for both vacation and examination there won’t be much happening in terms of activities so the focus would be on the programmes for the next academic year,” he stated. Bhatikar informed they had printed 200 copies of the first volume on trial basis and the same have been kept at the departments and some of them would be sent to selected universities in the country. The first issue of eight pages highlights the 21st Annual Convocation of the university which was graced by Governor S S Siddhu and other educational luminaries. It also features news round-up at the university and other write-ups, he added. He said the bulletin will be available on the GU website along with the annual report and other publications.
