Fourth Estate news editor shares plan and hopes for the Fall 2024 semester

BY NAWAAL NACKERDIEN, NEWS EDITOR

Hello everyone, 

My name is Nawaal Nackerdien and I am Fourth Estate’s news editor for the Fall 2024 semester. I’m originally from South Africa and am majoring in Creative Writing with a minor in Technical Writing. 

Fourth Estate can serve as a link of public trust between campus and students. This semester, I want to support and improve our community. Establishing a strong connection is one step. I want the Mason community to feel that they can rely on Fourth Estate to update them on campus life. 

I am excited to be the news editor for this semester. Through working with student writers and the Mason community, I will be able to help others and myself grow in our campus careers. In my position, I will share unbiased stories that are truthful and accurate. I plan to hold the utmost integrity in editing and publishing writers’ works.

If there is anything you would like to cover, Fourth Estate is welcoming to all writers with any type of experience. We have capable staff in multiple positions willing to help you improve and have your work published.

Students interested in joining Fourth Estate should email us at eic@gmufourthestate.com. If you have an interest in writing news related content on campus, please reach out to my email provided below.

Sincerely, 

Nawaal Nackerdien
