EDITORIAL

Greetings , reader of FOCUS magazine !
As our magazine is growing and cultivating it ’ s style , we are looking to the development and future of FOCUS . Starting this project we made our vision clear : to supply the students of Aarhus University Herning and TEKO with current , relevant news and information from the local scene . Our mission has been to create a high quality and free issue available to anyone with interest to our institutions . Finally FOCUS is about getting you connected to the events and projects going on .
After only a few short months , we have grasped a unique and personal student magazine style , our volunteer count has grow . We ’ ve networked and connected with many local organisations and companies , who now support and are part of our initiative . This was only possible through the massive commitment and enthusiasm of the people , who helped in creating and grinding the magazine towards our shared aspiration . So far the journey has been on winding roads ever reaching for higher plateaus .
However we ’ re nearing the end of this study year , and sadly a lot of the team of FOCUS will not be available in the next semester . The full potential of FOCUS has not yet been reached , which is why we are working towards continuing this project with new staff . For this reason we have been working on creating a solid and structured foundation for FOCUS and its conditions , so that new volunteers will easily be able to continue this legacy .
This also means a call to arms for anyone with an interest in journalism and writing . Focus is not subject to anyone but the joint staff and the ideas of the students a part of the project . Meaning our initiative is also able to cover any topic , we choose to write about and any subject that we find interesting and relevant . The purpose is to inspire , provoke , engage and inform the more than 3000 students of AU-He and TEKO .
The endeavour is a simple one ; sharing educational and cultural content with a fresh and fun spin . This is what we look for in the people , we incorporate and the stories we deliver to you . Our ambition for this magazine goes even beyond Herning and our ideas and dreams for the future are ones that we strive and fight for every day . FOCUS is about being an active participant in creating your own path in life , be it in creative writing or expanding minds .
Until next time , please enjoy this month ’ s issue of FOCUS , the student magazine of AU-Herning and TEKO .
