Well, I knew this one was coming.
There’s a special place in my heart for the print reader — the old-fashioned newspaper-with-morning-coffee kind of person. I know we have some readers whose only interaction with The Post is when they hold it in their hands every Thursday morning.
Why ‘The Post’ decided to explore what is around city of Athens
This weekend, generations of Posties will have the chance to mingle and reminisce about “the good old days” during The Post’s annual alumni reunion weekend.
We may only have five full weeks of classes remaining before the semester comes to an end, but here at The Post, we’re already in the thick of preparations for the next academic year.
I’m not a science person.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Well, for our newsroom at least.
Loving a reporter is no easy feat. We’ll ignore your texts for hours on end if a story breaks. We’ll chat your ear off about boring things like records requests. We’ll call you at midnight and ask you to pick us up from the newsroom because we’re too tired to walk home (sorry, Logan). It’s a wonder that any of us ever find that special someone.
In a world that’s quick to toss around the phrase “fake news” and scrutinize anything presented as a fact, it’s more important than ever for the news media to be honest and transparent about their methods.
You’ve heard it said before: College students tend to live in a bubble. And admittedly, that’s kind of the way college works, especially in a town like Athens.
Earlier this week, I had the chance to attend Alpha Phi Alpha’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Brunch, where we heard from Basheer Jones, a Cleveland city councilman and grassroots activist.
The snow is thawing, the students have returned and across Athens, the campus is beginning to come back to life, full of new energy and in some cases, new resolutions.
Correction appended.
Journalists are, by nature, complainers. Oftentimes, we’re never satisfied, always skeptical, and generally too busy to rest on our laurels and reflect on the little things in life.
I have to admit: I feel a bit guilty this week because I wasn’t able to be very involved with the planning of this week’s issue of The Post. Between illness and traveling, I’ve basically been missing in action for the past two weeks. But fortunately, I got the chance to spend some time in New York City this week on a trip with classmates from my business reporting class.
Today, we roll out our endorsements for the midterm elections. You will find that The Post Editorial Board didn’t endorse any candidates this year and only voiced our thoughts on Issues 1 and 3.
This past weekend, I made a much-needed trip home to see family, decompress for a bit and catch up on sleep in the comfort of my own home. Blame it on the changing of the season, a week full of gloomy headlines or midterm stress, but Athens felt like it was in rare form — and I needed an escape.
For more than a century, The Post has been around to witness some of the biggest moments in the history of our nation and our university.
Whether you’re a current student or a returning alumnus, we thank you for your readership.
We hope this special issue of The Post will celebrate LGBT culture and raise awareness about issues that matter.
