On the 12th of August 2011, the School of Communication Studies (SoCS), SEGi University College officially launched its first student newsletter. This annual newsletter which is spearheaded by the communication club, FOURSEGi, is named ‘Welcome to FOURSEGi’, or ‘WTF’ in short.

Ms. Zarina Zawawi, the Course lecturer cum Programme Coordinator of SoCS, unveiled the newsletter at the launch. With the help of Ms. Ung Wei Yenn, the public relations lecturer of SoCS, Bethany Teoh, who is also the editor created this newsletter, serving as an information hub for the students about the latest happenings in SEGi University College. It will feature updates on events around campus, a guide for new students, entertainment news and also a column for students to voice out their ideas and opinions.

“The newsletter provides Mass Communication students with the opportunity to practice journalistic writing and appreciate the existence of the print media. At SEGi University College, we are dedicated to provide education that is passion guided and industry driven,” said Faisal Ibrahim, the Head of SoCS.

To celebrate the victories of our forefather’s as youths of Malaysia, the theme for the inaugural issue of WTF is ‘Merdeka Day’. In conjunction with the launch of the newsletter, Fazrul Sher B. Mohamaed Rafique, a Mass Communication diploma student was announced as Mr. ‘WTF’.

Chosen based on several characteristics including ‘responsible’, ‘outspoken’ and an ‘exemplary role model’, Mr. ‘WTF’ will act as spokesperson to the newsletter. The selection was based on votes from SoCS students. Fazrul Sher was also featured in the cover story of the newsletter.
