October 12

Interesting front page picture..a girl in my spanish class actually said "really, shots on the front page" and i mean the girl is smiling..who smiles while getting a shot?? Good article though, nice open and close--funny close actually. informative
Jumps for both the Leland and Parking are switched.
Oh and one of Lelands quotes was changed or something...doens't work..it might be what she said but aren't you suupposed to fix that stuff if it will make the person look back..and she is the dean of our schooL!
Is it just me or are the pictures kinda blah this week? really just a picture of a banner for zta think pink, and the fair picture is actually really cool looking, but i think people at the fair doing the things that are written about like the concerts, eating, riding the ferris wheell would have been better. Also the parking picture was used like 2 weeks ago.
I like the meet the candidates box. Other than that though, it was kind just ehh..lots of words, what happened to the alternate story forms we were saying were so good last week?
Banned books was a good read, but i think it should have come out the friday of that week..not really that timely.
This article was the one of the frist times i laughed at the cartoon..maybe its just b/c our group had an issue with them this week..but seriously..power issue going on there!
...how come both of the columns were about politics..we are surveying people in our group to see what people are interested in..and yes politics is a big one..but both columnists shouldnt' write about politics the same week.
*if we name our mascot bobby i might cry...
i will say that the features and sports pictures were much better than the news ones..except the potato drop one..get some people!

Oct 5th

Love the head picture--and not just cuz the photographer is my amazing roommate. It has a lot of color and doesn't look posed! The story is also very informative, made me excited about the "den"..i wanna go!

I am so glad an artciel was written on the Grim Reaper, i saw them before my 2 class and it really upset me, there were so many people watching too, it was awesome. I like the campus involvement and i think this was def a story needing to be coverd. It is something that is well written from both sides the Marines and the GR..might have needed a little more input from people supporting the marines though...
Glad to see the Grove ad is gone..oh wait..just moved..its starting to look a lil better though

We need better beat questions..seriously if you saw a man hit a woman?? thats just ridiculous.
NICE letter to the editor..that a way to piss someone off enough to write to us.

Nice pictures and layout for Sylvia, but the headlines of the two articles kinda blend..i know there is a vocab word for that..but i dont remember it..
Why has the litter box been empty lately..aren't we supposed to increase reader response..and the litter box is one of the major things read by students.
Jena 6: i like the article. That is a huge issue lately and I dont know who all is in "the know" of whats been going on, i knew some of the stuff but havent really had time to catch it on the news..so i really like the fact box as well as the article tying GCSU to Jena 6.
Nice Column for corey--but the braves are still better--even if we are done..haha
Maybe for sports we should do like a weekly top player thing--didn't we used to do that? Idk but there was a comment form someone on how much they liked the soccer one the other week..this should be continued! Also i like the Short Stop--i just keep forgetting to mention that in here--its informative adn easy way to get info.
Didn't our class come up with alternate story forms for this energy article...yet it is just text..hmm interesting..
I liked the article on the condom suit of armor..informative and entertaining. I think its a great thing they are doing. Contraversal but good.

Good colonnade this week!
