It's hard to believe that SIXTY whole years have gone by since the release of The Innis Herald's first issue! Imagine what it was like being an Innis student in 1965, when the College was still finding its identity in a tiny building nestled between University College and Hart House. We sit down with alumnus Robert Patrick to talk about the early days of Innis College. Hear what it was like to establish traditions, fight for student-staff parity in governance, and sort of figure out what exactly being an Innisian means.

Aaaand we're back! For the first episode of the V61 season, meet our new Creative Directors (yes, plural again) - Ario and Batu. With the summer issue already out and our 60th anniversary edition coming up next, it seems reasonable to have an idea of who's in charge of the ingredients list for this metaphorical soup (i.e. The Innis Herald newspaper).

Monday Apr 07, 2025

Listen to the penultimate episode for V60 of the Innis Herald Podcast. Join our Host Zach as he catches up with former Podcast Director and incumbent Managing Editor, Marty. We cover the election results, life after PhySU, and combat capabilities against other mammals.P.S. This was recorded a little while ago, so several points of discussion may - or may not, quite likely but not necessarily, in some ways more than others - be just a tad outdated (e.g. the confirmed executive masthead lineup).
