T’HUD is the University of Huddersfield’s student magazine, but we’re also much more than that!
It is your platform to express yourself. Unleash your inner journalist, graphic designer, photographer, content creator, and more. The list is endless. There are countless ways to get involved in our small but mighty community. Our members are what make this society; we’re by students, for students.
We’re also not just exclusively for students enrolled in media or journalism courses, with our membership open to whoever wants to join our community. So if you have think we have a gap in our coverage, don’t feel afraid to join or drop us an email.
Meet the Committee
Emma Eldridge
Co-President
Hiya!! I’m Emma Eldridge, one of the Co-Presidents of T’HUD. A bit about me is that I’m a 3rd year music journalism student with a passion for anything music related. I got involved with T’HUD because it gave me the opportunity to write about my interests in a supportive and encouraging environment. We are excited for new faces and new ideas for our student magazine so make sure to join T’HUD to become part of the family!!
Ritchey Chesters (He/Him)
Co-President & Chief Designer
Hey there! My name is Ritchey Chesters and I am Co-President and Chief Designer of T’HUD. I’m a year three music journalism student, a big music nerd and I love working with magazines. I joined T’HUD because it’s an amazing creative outlet to express my interests and passions, no matter how silly! We look forward to having people join our society and see your passions come to life!
Lewis Craven (He/Him)
Chief Editor
I’m Lewis Craven and I’ll be your Chief Editor this year! Whether giving feedback on pitches or writing articles of my own, you can contact me regarding anything relating to our output as the University’s student magazine. At the University I’m studying Games Design (in my 3rd year) and my major interests are politics, gaming and writing. As Chief Editor for 26/27, I will be pushing for more coverage of Huddersfield happenings relevant to you!
Sabih Nadheem (He/Him)
Social Media Manager
Returning as Social Media Manager this year, after being both President of T’HUD and Chief Editor, Sabih is a jack-of-all-trades and is active in many of the societies here at the University – you may have even seen him at one of your events! In addition to T’HUD, Sabih is also President of K-Wave and always bringing his signature chill energy everywhere.
What’s involved?
For those already dead set on joining us this year and want to know what being a T’HUDDER is all about, there are two main roles we divide members into, writers and designers (you can take on more than one role if you’re a keen multi-tasker).
Writers contribute to writing articles here on our website and for the magazine and Designers are responsible for designing the look, feel and layout of the magazine.
Every academic year, we release two physical magazines, which are an amazing way to celebrate the society and are disseminated throughout both University campuses.
