To inspire a new generation of student journalists by creating an accessible, professional, and visually appealing platform that celebrates campus life and community spirit.Our Story
The Campus Chronicle was developed as a prototype to demonstrate
effective human-computer interaction (HCI) principles in action. Built
with static HTML, the website focuses on usability and clarity rather

ability, can access the information they need effortlessly. Each section
— from News and Sports to Entertainment, Opinion, and Campus Life —
reflects the diversity and energy of campus experiences, offering
stories that inform, motivate, and connect readers.
Our Core Values
🧩Accessibility: Designed in line with WCAG 2.0 guidelines for
inclusive use.
⚪Simplicity: A clean, static layout ensures stability and ease of
navigation.
🤝Community: Highlights stories that build connection and pride within
the campus.
🔍Transparency: All information is straightforward, credible, and
relevant.
🎨Creativity: Encourages student involvement and diverse perspectives
in reporting.
