Introduction
This proposal is intended to present the project of a monthly magazine in English for the students of this college.
Why start the magazine
English has recently become the most popular lingua franca. Therefore, it is essential for all the students to master it and this magazine could help them considerably. In addition, the launch of a magazine in English by the college would mean a great deal to international students, who cannot currently access much information about the institution and its events due to the language. Last but not least, feedback from students' questionnaires suggests they lack a sense of belonging to the college, a problem that would be easily tackled with the magazine.
What the first issue would include
Our idea is to include information about the college as well as some interesting articles with educational purposes. In the first edition, a list of the events held this month at the college could be included to address the former and a diverse range of articles about topics from music to the university's history to confront the latter. The most important events would have their own space with some extra information and specifications. Moreover, the articles would include a section to reinforce the vocabulary learned by reading them.
What support and financial help you need from the college
Finally, no matter how enthusiastic we get about it, if we have not the consent and necessary financial backing, the magazine will certainly not success. The main costs would be those of the printing, as the writers are volunteers and are not going to get paid. Besides, we would be very thankful if the college allowed us to advertise the magazine throughout the faculties.
Conclusion
In conclusion, we would like to start a monthly magazine in English aiming at the students, yet we cannot do it by ourselves. We need the approval and support of the university.
