part in the event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New members came not only from departments under the AbdulHamid AbuSulayman Kulliyyah of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences (AHAS KIRKHS) but also from other Kulliyyah such as Ahmad Ibrahim Kuliyyah of Law (AIKOL).    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153It was great to see new faces showing interest in IIUMToday, despite this being our first time handling a physical training session two years after COVID-19, the participation was good,\u009d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He hoped the training would give them an insight into what the team was working on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153These new faces surely will be the future leaders of this society since some of us will be graduating soon,\u009d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IIUMToday has always welcomed new people from different backgrounds who aspire to be journalists or are passionate about writing to be part of the family.***<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Balqis Asrof
