Another month, another heavily delayed issue of Et Cetera. Another testament to idle minds being Devilâs workshops We were overwhelmed by how the NITR junta warmed up to our maiden issue, embracing our basic philosophy and our core ideals. We donât know what they are, but we are glad you embraced them. Coming to the last 40 days, its been a turbulent period for reasons we all know. But keeping that ugliness aside, there has been a Convocation, an NU, the 2nd NITR PD, and nothing else. So no, we will not have a month review in this issue, because seriously, we are a boring bunch of people. What we will have is some level of speculation about the future. Very soon, Rotaracters will be banging your doors down, intent on driving you to financial ruin. So here goes, the Feb â13 issue of Et Cetera, with our margins made up of little hearts, because hey, V-DAY!
