You know that friend who didn’t seem particularly interested in performing… until she went overseas and started appearing in every Malaysian Night production? This is what I would imagine how our diverse population of international students felt during our annual Monash Cultural Night. It’s hard not to amp up your patriotism when you’re overseas, and…

The best way for one to become educated about the world around is to experience the world first hand, to see the different cultures and lifestyles up close. With a diverse population existing in Monash, our university is a melting pot of different cultures, each one unique in its own aspect. What differentiates one societal…

Any decent person would know better than to tell a woman what she can or cannot wear, or whether her choice of clothing determines the odds of getting harassed.

Last Saturday was a very special day for the Monash Malaysia’s IChemE club.

‘Wah, best-ah, got bazaar again leh.’ (Please appreciate the pun, I realise it’s a stretch but I didn’t know how else to start the article ok sue me.) Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get down to business (TO DEFEAT THE HUNS!). Week 6 marked the return to school for all of us…

With Earth Day being just around the corner (22nd April to be exact), campaigns on environmental protection are doubled to serve as reminders for the ones who contribute the most to Earth’s pollution – us. As part of the #MonashGoesGreen movement, Viridis organized a campaign to enlighten students on the environmental issues going around globally….

On Thursday of this week, the Monash University Student Association (MUSA) hosted the Glow Up event. Essentially, it was a…
