On Tuesday, April 19, faculty, staff, and students gathered together to hear about the many exciting ways people use writing in their lives and their professions.

Joe Tacopino, reporter for the New York Post, discussed his experiences covering various news stories in and around Staten Island.
Following the individual presentations, we had time for a Q&A session with all panelists.
