An historic publication

Founded in 1953, this student newspaper calls a spade a spade, shoots from the hip, and isn't afraid to make enemies in its quest for honesty, honour and humour. If you have an interest in journalism then pick up this paper playmate published monthly during semester, or, if you’ve got an issue that you want to speak up about, send in an article and use Tharunka to spread the word.

It's a scandalous read

Publication of the Foundation Day issue usually ends up with Tharunka in the news for one reason or another.

Per Tharunka's Wiki page, "Tharunka's at times irreverent approach has seen copies seized by police, destroyed by political opponents and censored by the student organisation." Sound like something you want to take a gander at?

How can I get my hands on a copy?

Tharunka is usually published and distributed around campus 6 times a year. Until we're back on campus, follow Tharunka on Facebook make the Tharunka website your home page to stay up to date on student sarcasm, satire, and social commentaries.

Got something to say?

Tharunka is always looking for keen and creative contributors to join the family and wax poetic about student life and despair about current affairs. 

As well as including some publications on your resume and developing your writing, editing, time management, and communication skills, the students at Tharunka are also responsible for some of the most famous Foundation Day pranks ever performed, so volunteering with Tharunka is an inside pass to plotting the next big stunt.

Like money? You can also apply to be on the Tharunka editorial team or the Tharunka designer. Keep an eye out on Arc Jobs & Ops.
