Group B (Y) Story Assignments

(These are due on Monday, Sept. 20)

Phil Alexander: Preview the upcoming hockey season. The Critic often does this by talking to the coach, who is Jonathan Davis. He’ll gladly talk about the team. If the team has a captain, your readers might be more interested in hearing what a fellow student has to say about the season. (How tough a schedule? Toughest opponent? Easiest opponent?)

Jack Carney: What do you do if you’re an LSC student, you’re hungry, and you don’t want to drive? Which restaurants deliver? Just in the town? To the campus? Last year, Pizza Man started delivering. The Hornets’ Nest has delivered in the past and might still. Anybody else?

Justin Chenette: Library closing on Saturdays. Cost-saving move? Any idea how much will be saved? Are students concerned?

Kelleigh Duffy: LSC has instituted a new 1,000-page limit on photocopies for students. Ask Mike Dente, the chief technology officer, for the reasons and the anticipated savings. Are you being assessed a copying fee for the 1,000 pages? What happens if a student gets to 999 copies? Do you have to pay more if you go over?

Aaron Kormos: LSC is starting a new Adventure Recreation program alongside intramurals. Jamie Struck is in charge. It sounds like an effort to leverage all of the outdoor possibilities of this region.

Kevin Lessard: The First Major Activity is no longer. In its place is a community service project (or projects) for all freshmen. Donna Keely is the director of the first year experience and can tell you why it was changed. It takes place on Friday, Sept. 17 – all classes are cancelled that day. Find out from Keely what will be going on, and amble about campus that day to see what you can see. Photos would be great.

Erin Milne: What does LSC plan to do with the new property it bought on the south edge of campus? Talk to Wayne Hamilton, the dean of administration.

Dan Nichols: Earn money by soliciting money. The LSC alumni office is hiring students to work the phones during the annual Phonathon. The callers reach out to alums and urge them to donate to LSC. It’s particularly important this year because LSC is planning for its 100th anniversary. Hannah Manley, the director of alumni relations, can help you.

Joe Peters: Profile Katie Bouley, the new assistant professor in the Exercise Science Department. She recently got her Ph.D. (I think she still needs to finish her dissertation). She’s all about food intake, it seems. And she looks young enough to be mistaken for a student. Has that ever happened to her? Does it bother her?

Katelyn Zenie: The Campus Activities Board sponsors free bus trips for students each year. Where is CAB taking you this year, and when? How does CAB choose the destinations? Kayla Carlozzi, the new RHD and CAB adviser, can help you out.

Justin Paul: Kelly Rossiter is back. He was a very popular Outdoor Recreation instructor before he left a year or two ago to finish a degree (master’s?). He’s back as a part-time faculty member in the Mountain Recreation Management Department (successor to outdoor recreation).

Paul Shaw: WWLR – what does the radio station have planned for this year? New shows? New music? Will it bring any bands to campus? It’s a club and the club had its first meeting on Sept. 8. Who is the new general manager? He or she will be able to help you.
