Letter from the Editor 10/11

Dear Leader Reader, 

I hope that the school year has been going smoothly for you. We are almost at the halfway point of the semester, and soon we will be getting a well-deserved break. 

As you begin to truly settle into the school year, I believe now is the best time to explore more options to make your college journey memorable. An easy solution would be to join an organization, and may I say, I believe The Leader is your best option. 

Many people have asked me whether or not it is too late to join the paper, and the truth is that it is never too late.

One of my favorite aspects of The Leader is how flexible it is. If you have some spare time, writing for The Leader is a great way to build your writing skills, and to have published work that you can add to your resume.

You can come and go as your schedule sees fit. While we would love to have you write for every issue, realistically we know that cannot happen, and are willing to work with you whenever you want to work with us. 

There is a lot of power that one can hold writing for their school’s newspaper. You get to bring attention to issues on campus and have your voice heard in a public forum. If there is something that you feel is being ignored, The Leader is a great place to bring attention to it. 

If you are thinking about joining, I encourage you to come to one of our meetings on Tuesday, either in Old Main 107 or on Zoom, during protected hour. I am hoping to hear from you, and if you have any questions, you can always email me at rwind3048@365.elmhurst.edu.

Happy Reading!
