By Tim Kaiser, Editor-in-Chief

As we begin our second semester of this incarnation of the SCCougar, we are looking for new staff members. Turnover is an inevitable part of a college newspaper. We are looking for students interested in seeing their work published in both the print and online editions. To join, contact Faculty Adviser Lee Ann Nelson (lnelson@stchas.edu) or stop by LRC 221 between 1:00-2:00 PM Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.

Along with writers, anyone interested in photography, videography, editing, or graphic design may join.  Because this is on a voluntary basis, you can do as much, or as little work, as you want.

No previous experience or prerequisite class is necessary to join. However, COM 102-Mass Communications, Journalism 120, and Video Production 260/290 are all strongly encouraged if you are interested in pursuing Mass Communications further.

Benefits of joining a college newspaper staff :

  1. Receive College Credit
  2. Learn to work on deadline
  3. Get hands-on experience with both online and print newspapers
  4. Hone your writing skills
  5. Build a portfolio of your work for future employers
  6. Try out a career in journalism
  7. Outlet to publish your work for an established audience
  8. Pad your resume
