Here’s a fun fact for you. This is my first (and only) article that I have ever written for The News. I’m the only editorial board member who doesn’t produce content for the paper. I’m the only one who doesn’t spend his Wednesday nights in the newsroom participating in the wonders of production night. Instead, I have the pleasure of working with a class in the Department of Journalism and Mass Communications, producing a weekly show called “The College News.” 

It’s easy to think this unique position would make me an outcast from the rest of The News and that I would just be the guy whooccasionally posts something on Facebook or YouTube. However, the reality is that I couldn’t have possibly asked for a more amazing and supportive group of people. I’m truly blessed to be surrounded by these people, both at The News and in the class that produces “The College News.” 

There are so many people I need to thank. First, thanks to the amazing people that make “The College News” possible. My position has me acting as a sort of assistant teacher for their class, offering my own input and helping with production. Yet they are the real stars of the show, writing all the scripts and filming all our videos. I’m just the schmuck who stitches it together, and I couldn’t do my job without them.

Second, thanks to my amazing friends on the editorial board. As I said earlier, I’ve been blessed to be a part of such an amazingly talented group of people. Third, thanks to Dr. Stephanie Anderson and Dr. Carol Terracina-Hartman for your amazing knowledge and advice over the past year. And lastly, thanks to you, the reader, for making this all possible.
