Journalism Editorial

Editor Beth Quill asked me to draw your attention to this week's Ithacan editorial, which addresses some concerns with the current state of the journalism department.

Tell Us Your Stories

Remember those big stories? Those exciting interviews? Those crazy nights in the office?
Current Ithacan editor in chief Beth Quill is compiling historical and anecdotal information about the Ithacan's past for a story celebrating the paper's 75th anniversary. Drop her an e-mail at:
equill1@ithaca.edu (that's equill with the numeral 1 after it)
and share your memories of your time at The Ithacan. She'd like to hear from everyone, and especially from alums who worked on the paper before 1989. If you don't like e-mail, you can write to her at:

Come on, we know you're out there.

Welcome to the Ithacan Alumni Blog

Through the years I've received many e-mails and phone calls from former Ithacan staffers who wanted to find out what had been going on at the paper since they'd been gone. Some were hoping to learn what had become of their former classmates. Some offered to provide current students with job or internship assistance. Others just wanted to say hello. So we've created this blog to help you keep in touch with the paper — and with each other.
This is a very special year for The Ithacan. 2006 marks the 75th anniversary of the paper, and we're planning events to celebrate throughout the year. The first will be a special Ithacan reunion at Alumni Weekend, June 2-4. We're hoping to get as many Ithacan people as possible back to campus that weekend for our anniversary celebration. Watch this space for details.
