Presenting the Fall 2013 Pioneer Editors and Managers!

Presenting the Fall 2013 Pioneer Editors and Managers!

Shelly Le September 13, 2013
This afternoon was our first editors critique meeting and I can't honestly say how proud and honored I am to work with such dynamic, fun, dedicated, and good-looking (If I do say so myself!) individuals. Our majors span from BBMB to Economics, to German Studies and our non-Pio interests include soccer, watching Jeopardy!, and coffee making. We don't get a whole lot of sleep, we eat way too much pizza on production night and some of us (err, I mean Sean) have terrible taste in music. Anyway, I'm rambling. Our first print issue hit stands this week, but this is our formal hello. Hello!

Sounded interesting. So armed with a Web page for the movie, I naively set out on my first attempt at investigative journalism.
