Obligatory first post

Hello my fellow journalists!

The first day of production is underway, and tomorrow marks the first day of the spring 2012 semester. There is much work to be done.

After the excellent training session we had Thursday and Friday, I'm confident completing all that work is going to be easy. We have a motivated group of journalists/editors capable of handling anything.

This (cleverly named) blog will be keeping track of all that work. After I read the paper (in its entirety), I will take critiques and praise of that work and post it on this blog. This will consist commentary on the content of the paper, execution of packages and anything else I notice. I also will be posting thoughts and musings on anything else happening in the newsroom.

Chris Lusk, our fearless leader, will be posting on here as well. He will have his own tab, but that content will feed through the home tab.

Judy, our adviser, has a blog that critiques the paper, but I wanted to create a blog that will offer a platform for the editor-in-chief and the managing editor (fellow students) to talk to everyone at the same time. You should read both of the blogs. Judy is a veteran of the industry and has awesome insight.

The next post (you know, one that will have some meaty information in it)  Make sure you sign up for email notifications so you receive an alert when the blog is posted.

Here is to a great semester of journalism and academics!
