The page editors complete the first draft of their pages on Thursday afternoon and return Friday at 1 p.m. to fix any mistakes. News Editing II students must then come in Friday before 1 p.m. to edit the pages. Each student will write three editorials and three columns during the semester for consideration of publication in The Southwestern. A newspaper design project will be due at the end of the semester. The project requires the student to critique a newspaper.
Deadlines are critical.
Be sure you are prepared at the designated date. Late work will seriously affect your grade point. Editing articles and pages is a large part of a student s grade. Failure to edit the stories not only hurts the student, it also hurts the production of The Southwestern. The student will spend little time in class.
