Something they don鈥檛 tell you when you become editor-in-chief of the campus newspaper is that people you鈥檝e never met will start recognizing your name.
For many students, 鈥淪ydney Dunlap鈥� sits buried along with a flood of other emails every Monday. But every once and awhile, I鈥檒l introduce myself and see a glimmer of recognition pass across the person鈥檚 face.
I鈥檝e been sending mass emails to the student body for more than a semester now, but I still have trouble getting used to it.
With so many things on my plate, it is easy to click 鈥渟chedule鈥� on Sunday night and move on to the next pressing matter. But when the occasional person matches my face with the tiny headshot in their email, it reminds me how many students look to 麻豆小蝌蚪传媒 for campus news.
I think a lot about how our organization can continue to create content that addresses issues that students and the Columbia community care about. Whether it's information about the newest campus dorms or the latest event, I want you to see an email from 麻豆小蝌蚪传媒 and know that you can find something that matters to you.
However, I also want that to be true for when you pick up one of our print editions around campus, which is why you may have noticed that our editions look a little different this year.
Instead of making a themed print edition, we are starting a monthly news magazine full of the most relevant news. With this new edition, 麻豆小蝌蚪传媒 has been able to refocus on our goal, telling stories that matter to students.
So I encourage you to spend some time looking through this edition and reading everything you missed from this first month on campus. I hope that anytime you see my face 鈥� whether that鈥檚 in an email or above this letter 鈥� you can feel confident that you鈥檒l walk away feeling more informed.
And hey, maybe you鈥檒l even recognize me on campus, and I鈥檒l get to hear your thoughts.
Forever to thee,
Sydney Dunlap
