STUDENT-NEWSLETTER

ABOUT SNL

The Student Newsletter Committee is established with an intention to encourage communication in the Student community. This is a committee of students headed by a faculty advisor that is primarily intended for the DSNLU Community. This committee works on the periodical issues of the student newsletter. The Student Newsletter is a compilation of latest updates, opinions and write-ups of the students, and also certain interesting sections related to our students. This Committee is responsible for the periodical newsletter and the DSNLU Blog. The thought behind the introduction of SNL is to collect and publish the opinions of the students on various allotted topics, thus encouraging the dialogue in the University and communication among the students. This sharing of opinions might also make the students open to any kind of opinions without being judgmental. The intention is to convert our students into people who are open-minded and to increase their ability to receive all types of opinions be it supporting or against.


WHAT IS OUR MISSION?

1. To encourage dialogue and communication in the Student Community.

2. To enhance the research and innovative skills of the Students.

3. To support and appreciate students for achieving great things.

3. To create a great sense of unity among the members of the DSNLU community by sharing the news, opinions and thoughts of mutual interests.

4. To make sure every student, faculty, parent and other member related to our University knows what’s happening in DSNLU.

WHAT ARE OUR FUTURE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES?

  • The Committee intends to get an ISSN number for the periodical issues to prove its authenticity.
  • The Committee is established primarily for the benefit of the DSNLU Community. However, the Committee has a will to expand its scope to people outside the DSNLU community by accepting contributions from the people outside our University.
  • The Committee intends to start its work with bimonthly issues of the Student Newsletter. Slowly, in future, the committee intends to start a blog in the official DSNLU website for the publication of Opinions and Legal Write-ups, not only from the DSNLU students but also from the students outside University.
  • The best works will be included in the periodical newsletter issued by the Student Newsletter Committee.

This can be done through asking for submissions. A time limit of 15-20 days for submission on the allotted topics will be given. The submissions can be on the topics outside the suggested list, however, the opinions or write-ups shall be on the current topics or related to law in any manner. This blog will be updated for every 2 weeks subject to change depending on the number submissions we receive)
  1. Email newsletters: A brief newsletter template is mailed to all our subscribers. So, they can click the links in such email templates and access the blogs in our website. The students and faculty of DSNLU receive this email automatically without any subscription.
  1. The Newsletter: The best opinions and legal Write-ups (that are published in our blog for past two months) will be published in our Newsletter pdf. This will be published bimonthly. This pdf will include all those sections related to university.

Currently, the Committee focuses on the Newsletter and its periodical issues only. The creation of Blog is included as one of our future goals.
