I just realized it is almost “Dead Week.” The monotony of the semester lulled me into a mental sleep. I haven’t bought a ticket home, and my summer plans are in disarray. Most of the things I put off until “it was warm enough” are now superseded by finals. This semester I tried to lead the staff to a better paper, and I hope you like the changes we made. Tabloid, or “half size,” seems to be much more popular, and the changes to entertainment are better than another informal new section. We received some Letters to the Editor and plenty of submissions to Student Life. Keep the feedback coming. Next fall we will have a fresh staff, new writers and hopefully a response from you. No, I am not speaking of the proverbial reader. I mean you personally. Any publication needs criticism from its audience; without it we can only guess what you want. I hear plenty of “…the Miner is just bad…” but no one feels strongly enough to tell us the real issue. We are a paper on an engineering campus, but despite popular belief, there are intelligent people who can read and write proficiently. Out of those people, there are plenty that have enough free time to write a short article on an event that they are already attending, or state their opinion on a wide-spread or political issue. Anything sent to us in this last week will not be forgotten, but put to good use creating a Miner that you want to read. If you have a rational flaw with the paper, tell us instead of complaining to your friends. Don’t be that guy. |
