Description

How to write and edit AP style news and feature articles, produce writing samples for their portfolios, and/or utilize their graphic design skills, while earning applied credits. It was created in response to a need expressed by the current editors and advisor of the newspaper to encourage greater student participation, especially among incoming freshman. The newspaper cannot fully function without committed, regular student involvement. It is crucial that students also receive some professional training on how to conduct interviews, quote sources, and write and edit AP style articles.
