─────── What's Happening at ISD Chronicles? ───────

Thank You Lise!

It’s hard to believe we’re bidding farewell to Lise as part of our editorial team. While she isn’t stepping down entirely as she’ll still be a part of the newspaper (albeit in a different capacity), this shift to our new editorial team is bittersweet.

The New Editorial Team!

As we step into this new chapter of the ISD Chronicles, we are thrilled to present the new editorial team! We are honoured to carry on Lise’s legacy and contribute new ideas to the club, even though she has been an amazing leader in getting the newspaper to where it is today.

Beyond The Mic

Since the beginning of the ISD Chronicles, we have wanted to launch a podcast, to share our thoughts and ideas of the happenings in our ISD community, and the wider world. For this edition, we have made that happen! Atrisa and Liya, from our new Editorial Team have decided to start a podcast series called Beyond the Mic.
