A n r V i ^ r How your weekly newspaper is made

m

The Anchor is more than just a newspaper for its staff members. The Anchor is our lives. Each and every week, we make countless phone calls, fix computer problems, write, edit, layout our pages and make numerous Kletz runs in the process of putting out an issue. From start to finish, we oversee every aspect of The Anchor, from website production to copy editing, and from ad design to photography.

We have dedicated ourselves to journalism...at least for Tuesday night. Here is a random sampling of how our hard work brings you the latest news.
