Well Denzel: Letter From The Editor 2-23

Posted on 27 February 2013.

Readers of the Mace & Crown,

The Mace & Crown is currently gearing up to hire a new Editor-in-Chief. Unfortunately, my time at the paper is quickly dwindling down. I am sad to leave the Mace, but I know it will be in good hands. As we begin our search amongst our staff members, we are looking for a leader. Many individuals on staff are beyond qualified for the position.

My hope for the paper is to remain a respectable outlet for news, entertainment and sports on campus. I want the student body to remain informed about the events across campus, and always come to the Mace to get their information. Organizations should feel welcome to reach out to us, and give us any story ideas. As EIC, I worked hard to cover as many events held by organizations across all of the ODU campuses in Hampton Roads.

The Editorial Board has a big decision to make in the next few weeks. As well as looking for a new EIC, the Mace & Crown will also be hiring for four other positions. Graphic Design, Copy Editor, Arts & Entertainment Editor and Web Design positions will be available. If you are interested in any positions, we will begin accepting applications after spring break. Please send any questions and resumes to editorinchief@maceandcrown.com.

The Mace & Crown will be at Relay for Life in April to help raise money for cancer. If you are interested in joining our team please email Jessica Starr at jstar018@odu.edu. We are hoping for a good turn out, so those who are interested should definitely email Jessica.

We meet every Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. in the U-Center, located across from the Card Center in Webb. We welcome anyone who has a passion for reading, writing, editing and photography. Join our Orgsync page for updates and meeting reminders.

If you wish to advertise with the Mace & Crown please contact James Porter at advertising@maceandcrown.com. He can supply information on advertising costs and the classified section.
