Omega Editorial #6 - Sept. 3, 2008

“WELCOME BACK…
...your dreams are your ticket out.”
I guess that’s as good a way to start as any.
If you’re new to TRU and haven’t read The Omega before, this is how I do it. I like to make relatively obscure references to old TV shows.
The first line of this editorial is a reference to Welcome Back, Kotter, maybe the most under-rated sitcom of all time.
Also if you’re new to TRU and this is your first time reading The Omega, I want to say, “Hi!”
Hopefully you like what we’re doing on some level, and you keep coming back.
We’re hoping to be the place where you turn for any sort of TRU-related news. And hopefully we can keep things reasonably entertaining for you, too.
Now here’s where I start shamelessly begging.
WE NEED YOU!
If you have any desire at all to be involved in the exciting world of campus news, come by and see me.
Believe me, writing for us is a great way to improve your writing skills, to practice your interviewing techniques or to just get out and meet people on campus.
This summer alone, I got the opportunity to annoy a bunch of different people at the university, including former TRU president Roger Barnsley and vice-president of advancement Christopher Séguin.
So come on out and get involved in your student newspaper. Meetings are Tuesday afternoons at 2 p.m., but I’ll be here pretty much everyday. Stop by and see me, and we can discuss ‘80s television.
Good luck this year
