Celebrating the people who get you the news

After looking back at this unique semester, I wanted to recognize our most active staff. Our members don’t have content requirements, yet these students pushed themselves to produce the most content for our sections. 

Newswire provides stupendous opportunities for our members to learn and grow, but we can only do that when there’s content to publish. Whether they’ve taken one picture or written 20 articles, I’m tremendously appreciative to each of our contributors.

Until next semester,
