A Closer Look Editor's Column: We’re baack!

Welcome back Winston-Salem State students and hello to the class of 2018!

I’m Katrina Robinson, Editor-in- Chief of The News Argus 2014- 2015.

I am a senior mass communications major, born and raised in Little Rock, Ark.

I hope to change the world through writing and help those who cannot help themselves.

When you enrolled, you made

the decision to fortify your status in society.

Being a Ram, you will learn more about yourself than anything else in the classroom.

It is my hope that during your academic tenure, you will find your passions, invest in it and stand up for it.

My plan as the new editor is to produce newspaper issues throughout this academic year that will inspire and encourage you to speak up, stand out and to not be afraid to ask the tough questions.

The News Argus has a history of winning state and national awards. I plan to do everything I can to add to that legacy.

Our mission is to inform, to educate and to entertain.

My hardworking staff of reporters is small and inexperienced but will be inspired by your constructive feedback -- through letters, social media (emails, tweets, …).

Also, tag @thenewsargus in a picture of you reading the Argus and comment with your favorite story on Instagram and Twitter. We want to know what you think!

We take our responsibility to our readers seriously.

This is a year of change, and The News Argus will document those changes including the induction of a new chancellor, a highly anticipated athletic season, the new College and more.

We will maximize our social media presence to increase participation from students and faculty.

The Argus news office is open 4-8 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays in 103 Old Nursing Building. The hallway is always dank and dark, but the office is always bright and lively with bustling Argus staffers.

Come to our interest meetings from 5 to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays. Bring ideas and comments.

You are always welcome!
