Hi Fanshawe and welcome to the latest volume of the Interrobang. With a new year of issues comes a new editor and that’s why I’m writing to you.

My name is Melissa Novacaska and I will be the paper’s editor for the 2017- 2018 year. I have had the pleasure of being the Interrobang’s head reporter for this past school year and I am looking forward to another year of finding, reporting and laying out a variety of stories for you.

Whether it be hard-hitting news, educational pieces or even some fun reads I’m looking forward to working with a great team and bringing the best stories possible for you to read.

Speaking of the concept of new, in this first issue, you will find an article about the new Wellness and Fitness Centre, as well as the Fanshawe Student Union’s (FSU) new president Morganna Sampson.

New donations from the Ontario government, a new way to help feel at ease with the help of fidget spinners and new changes to Fanshawe and the FSU’s involvement with the Pride London Festival are all stories to be found in this issue.

The paper also highlights a number of achievements from both students and staff, including a music nomination, nursing award, fine arts award and paralegal mock trial victory.

Fanshawe’s former and present athletes are on the rise being chosen to represent Team Canada’s Junior National Volleyball Team, or making Fanshawe history being named a top cross country athlete of the year.

Finally since it is summer, you will find a number of features dedicated to having the best season possible with hair, makeup, fashion and fitness tips. Summer resolutions and finding the best places to dine, best books and movies to read and see, festivals to check out and trails to take a walk on are also included in this issue.

With a wide variety of topics and stories featured in this issue, we at the Interrobang hope you enjoy it.

With online and video content being uploaded throughout the summer as well, feel free to take a look at our website for more fun and engaging stories at fsu.ca/interrobang.

Look out for our next issue in August, but until then, enjoy this summer issue and we’ll see you back soon.

Happy reading, Melissa
