Meet the Team - Section Editors - Yonna

 Name, age, place of birth?

I’m Yonna, 21 years old, and born in Rotterdam.

What section are you the editor of?

The Out & About section.

What kind of articles are published under your section?

As the name might suggest my section is about all the things happening in and around Middelburg and Zeeland; think cafes, festivals, or the best Pokémon hotspots you haven’t yet discovered.

What do you like most about your section?

I think it is a fun way to discover new things around the university. You can go on a little adventure instead of starting that paper that’s totally due tomorrow but hey, you gotta catch ‘em all…

If you were a Game of Thrones character, who would you be and why?

I’m probably a little bit like Brienne of Tarth, because she’s tired of your bullshit and just wants to do whatever the hell she wants. That’s pretty much me to a t, lol, feminist af.

 

Meet the Team - Section Editors - Maaike

Name, age, place of birth?

I’m Maaike Oosterling, I’m 20 years of age and I’m born in Zwijndrecht.

What section are you the editor of?

The Arts and Culture section!

What kind of articles are published under your section?

Anything that has to do with aforementioned words; music, art, movies, tv, pop culture ANYTHING.

What do you like most about your section?

Secretly, I know nothing of the world. News? Politics? Beats me, man. So instead, in this section, I can write about the things I know and care about the most; seemingly meaningless pieces of media I invest way too much time and effort in.

If you were a Game of Thrones character, who would you be and why?

So I’ve thought about this for a longer time already and the answer I come up with is always that I am not cool or brave enough to actually be a main character. So I’ll happily be a laughing child playing in the Water Gardens in Dorne. Or like.. Extra #3 in the credits.

 

Meet the Team - Section Editors - Gerjanne

Name, age, place of birth?

Hello everyone! My name is Gerjanne Hoek, I am 20 years old and I was born in Wijnjewoude, Friesland (The Netherlands).

What section are you the editor of?

I am the editor of the UCR section of Tabula RASA. I will keep my eye out for all kinds of events and stories about and within the UCR community and it’s buildings and members. So if you have anything exciting to share, contact me and we’ll publish some great headlines together!

What kind of articles are published under your section?

Think of articles about UCR’s societies and the events they organise. A pick: April 20, 2016; ‘So What Do You Do? I Am A Rower!’, when UCR’s own rowing club ODIN became officially registered in the Netherlands and also the most populair sport at UCR. Or something completely different like on April 20, 2016; ‘ Has God Made Science Irrelevant?’, which gave a nice recap of the past year’s Veritas Forum event about some of life’s biggest questions here at school. But I’m not opposed to the more juicy stuff and satirical articles either!

What do you like most about your section?

I like its diversity. Really, my section covers a lot of what is really close to all of the students here. Almost anything that happens within our bubble is fit to be written about in this lovely corner of the Tabular RASA Imperium.

If you were a Game of Thrones character, who would you be and why?

In my dreams I’d be Arya Stark. Quick witted, smart, strong and fearless. But in real life i’m probably a screeching peasant girl that gets pooped on by the three-eyed raven.

 

Meet the Team - Section Editors - Annick

 

Name, age, place of birth?

My name is Annick Wijnstra, I am 21 years old and I am from .

What section are you the editor of?

I am the editor of the Current Affairs section.

What kind of articles are published under your section?

The kind of articles are news articles, from all around the world. Instead of just publishing the news, the articles go into depth on the issue. The subject is explored and discussed in detail, but without it being like a paper.

What do you like most about your section?

I like how you can see the different points of view coming through in this section. As each writer has a different standpoint on the issues they are writing on, there is always something that you can learn from each other. It is UCR in a nutshell.

If you were a Game of Thrones character, who would you be and why?

I would probably say Sansa Stark, because why not. She is strong, even though she may not always seem like it. Also, she can be super sassy, which is a requirement in life, or at least in the TR Board!
