THE TUSKAN TIMES BERNARDO PETOCHI (‘22), KATHERINE DICK (‘23), AND EDOARDO CARIATI (‘21)
What is your role on The Tuskan Times?
What do you hope readers get from reading the Tuskan TImes?
Bernardo Petochi: Editor-in-Chief
BP: That they may learn something interesting, are sometimes amused, and hopefully enjoy the content. Learn about current and local events from the unique perspectives of our fantastic students here at ISF.
Katherine Dick: Assistant Editor-in-Chief Edoardo Cariati: Journalist and Web Designer
KD: I hope readers finish an issue and learn something. As long as they learned one thing, we have done our job.
What do you think makes an article interesting to readers??
EC: A breeze of ISF spirit and a the fresh point of view of young inspired writers.
BP: That it covers a topic in an original, critical, and thought-provoking manner. KD: First of all, if an article is well-written, I believe readers will automatically be more interested than if the piece is not. Other than that, we try to provide a variety of articles because we know that not everyone will be interested in every single article. I personally like to read opinion pieces because someone could have a similar or completely opposite opinion than yours, it’s always fun to see.
What are the skills you need in your role at Tuskan TImes? BP: Above all, the ability to work as part of a team. Furthermore, it’s important to be able to coordinate the diverse group of people that work in the paper. Critical thinking, and of course the capacity to write and edit, are also essential skills that are needed to maintain the high standards of our paper.
EC: Talking about new and interesting topics and appealing to the reader’s emotions. 32
