The Globe’s Point – Be the change you want to read

Another semester for the books. We’re relieved, to say the least. 

For the last several terms, our Globe family has shrunk. As some of our best editors graduate and move onto honorable endeavors, we’ve found it hard to
replace them. 

We strive to serve our readers with the best content possible – unbiased, interesting and important news on our campus. When our staff shrinks, that task becomes much more difficult. 

We are proud of the journalism we have curated this semester – throughout such a challenging season. But now, we are asking for your help. 

We want to diversify the voices in our eight page newspaper every week. We want to hear about what our audience cares about most, things we may not hear about ourselves within our School of Communication bubble. 

Writing truthfully and concisely is a skill employers value across a multitude of careers. The Globe is a great place to practice that, as our seasoned writers and editors can help you put forth your clearest voice.

As a strictly volunteer-based organization, we ask you to consider joining us in bringing the truth to our peers and professors. If you don’t see what you care about in our stories, we ask and welcome you to share your own.

There’s a reason we had to make little charts detailing personal and professional goals throughout high school. It’s significant to make goals so you continue to aim toward what you feel is most important in life. Maybe you’ve created a goal for yourself to write more in the coming year. Maybe you’ve said, “I wish I used my camera more.” Make a goal for yourself and see it through. 

As The Globe moves into a new semester and a new phase of its journalistic life, we are eager to see new faces and present fresh ideas to our Downtown community. 

If you’re unsure, come by and check it out for yourself. At the very least, you’ll be able to put faces to the names of the dedicated student journalists that bring you The Globe every week.
