Building a Better Buchtelite

My name is David Sickels, and this is my newspaper.  I took over as Editor-In-Chief of the Buchtelite at the beginning of the fall 2011 semester and am glad to have the opportunity to be the independent voice of the University of Akron.  I hope to use this blog to share with you some of the behind the scenes action that goes on while we’re producing the paper, share ideas with you and get feedback to improve what we’re doing.

The Buchtelite has some great changes that we’ve made (and are still in the process of making now) in order to report the best quality content we can to campus.  Some of these changes include a new editorial and business staff, creating new positions within the staff, a new newspaper design and a new website.

The print edition of the Buchtelite is released every Tuesday and Thursday, but you can catch up on University of Akron news at anytime by checking us out on http://www.buchtelite.com/.

Talk with you soon!
