Every Monday night, many of the staff members work to produce the weekly newspaper for the campus and local community. Making a newspaper can only happen if there’s a dynamic team with a diverse skill set. While reporters focus on getting the story, the copy editors make sure every i is dotted and t is crossed. Our section editors choose the content for each week’s paper and assign stories to reporters. The design team makes sure every page is pretty, down to the pica. Our photographers, multimedia editors, and online team focus use state-of-the-art equipment to create a unique visual experience for the 20,000 people who visit The Pendulum online every month.
