Kudos to 'The Goan' for starting news and features space titled "CAMPUS" for coverage of events and activities of educational institutions across Goa. This will give schools and colleges an opportunity to make known to the readers of the newspaper about the achievements of the particular educational institution and will be a motivational factor for the students to scale greater heights in different fields. Be that as it may, it would be in the fitness of things for educational institutions to also have their own internal newspaper. A school newspaper has several plus points. It can improve the quality of education imparted. It gives the students a voice. It improves their writing skills. It keeps students abreast with local and global news. School newspaper boosts confidence, improves communication and introduces spirited teamwork. It can also help school authorities to understand the mindset of the students and their needs. It is the first step towards producing quality journalists in future. Every educational institution needs to have it's own school newspaper.
