STUDENT VOICE Student Voice SPRING SUMMER 2017 | Page 3

spring 2017 CONTENTS Hello, thanks for opening this issue of the Student Voice. This magazine is for students, by students. I edit it into a nice, neat order before sending it to our terrific Graphic Designer to work her magic. For this issue we’ve had a few more helping hands carrying out the design work. We’d like to thank HND Visual Communication students, Kyle Lotter and Rebecca Kirkwood, for their efforts. I’m sure you’ll agree their pages are looking impressive. If you’d like to get involved in the magazine, then fantastic. Feel free to drop me an email at martin.currie@ayrshire ac.uk with your ideas. We’ve got some great stuff in this issue. But don’t just take my word for it, have a look over the contents and see what interests you. Enjoy. Happy reading, Martin Have your say! We’re always on the look out for new writing talent!
