Attend, write about and photograph community events including city hall and government meetings.

During my internship I fact checked articles, wrote features for the publication and conducted research and interviews for stories. I also helped create content for the website and social networks.

I looked for story ideas and assigned those ideas to my staff. I also edited submitted material before going to print. I contributed several stories each issue including a weekly section called The Student Vox where I discussed campus related issues with students to get their opinions.
