Our Voice: A letter from the new Editor in Chief
We care.
We care enough to spend what most would consider an absurd amount of time researching, interviewing, photographing and designing what is currently rubbing off on your fingertips.
We care because we expect you to care. We expect you to want to know where your tuition money goes or how many furlough days professors are required to go without pay.
My and the rest of The Colonnade staff’s job is to ensure you have a medium to find all of this information. Whether you choose to find your news via a series of rolls and clicks at GCSUnade.com or hit up one of our handy dandy newspaper racks for a print edition, I, as the editor in chief, assure you we have compiled, to the best of our ability, our campus’s news, features, opinions and sports.
Throughout the year, this section of The Colonnade will be devoted strict to our staff’s consensus opinion on a current event or subject. Take it, leave it, or keep it open in the back of your mind, but understand, this is strictly one perspective. Sometimes seeing our bylines in paper gives us big heads- so feel free to bring us down a notch. We encourage you to rebuttals.
As journalists, we strive to keep our articles fact-based and unbiased. If you ever feel like we have compromised this, I encourage you to write a letter to the editor or leave comments online. This helps us to learn- as we are a student organization- about our what many of us hope will soon become our career.
Throughout this semester, it is my goal to embrace our digital age by bulking up GCSUnade.com in anyway we can. We have added a new position, Podcast Manager, to add to our Web team in hopes to better serve you, the campus community. After all, our motto is, “It’s your right to know. It’s our duty to inform.”
Claire Dykes
Editor in Chief
