ABOUT US
The Editorial Board of JSS Science and Technology University, Mysuru.

The Editorial Board is a student literature club responsible for bringing out ‘Jayzine’, our university's annual magazine. We take pride in organizing ||Shabd||, the only literary fest held by an engineering college in Karnataka. Working under the guidance of Dr. Vanishri Arun, we are a small crew of about twenty-five caffeine-fuelled comrades. Along with celebrating Kannada Rajyotsava, we also conduct various other events like Mindspeak and Aralikatte. It is our firm belief that a creative outlet is vital for students to maintain a sense of balance in their lives. With this in mind, we have created a platform for them to hone their artistic capabilities.
Our Journey
We've come a long way from starting out as a small student club to being responsible for the only literature fest conducted by an engineering college in Karnataka.

Know our EventsCrew
We are a bunch of goofy dorks who love sipping on some Oreo-banana milkshake near Yampa while having the most other-worldly, enigmatic conversations with anyone who is willing to lend an ear or two. You can know more about us here.
Meet the CrewWhat We Do
We argue over where we'll be going for our next trip and if naming our vehicles and laptops is considered normal. We love hating on pigeons and taking embarassing pictures of each other for no reason at all. In short, we do stuff. Also, we conduct ||SHABD|| and publish Jayzine.
