Dear Readers,
Welcome to Issue 11!
In addition to The Budget Issue, we’re thrilled to bring you a regular issue this week as well! When in print…
While I’m sure you may have read my slightly sappy letter at the beginning of this double issue, let me once again take this white space to thank you all for your continued support. Seeing our work in print across campus is something that neither I nor The Quadrangle staff take for granted. To be able to have our presence physically seen on stands, in student hands and around classrooms is truly so rewarding, and serves as a reminder of why we do what we do.
I also want to take a moment to shout out our writers, editors and production team who worked tirelessly over the past few weeks – and all weekend – to bring this issue together. Special issues, especially double issues, are not an easy undertaking, and it’s in these weeks that everyone’s hands and hard work are on display even more so than usual. It is because of them and their dedication that The Quadrangle is able to tell the stories we do week-to-week, and I couldn’t be more grateful to lead the team as we do so.
As for this issue, we have plenty in store for you. In news, we cover Amazon Prime’s “The College Tour” filming on campus, MU’s new Classical Reading Series and a Manhattan Caucus following the finale of the mayoral election. In features, we cover the International Student Association’s coffee chats, as well as Her Campus’ “Fishy Affairs” event. In A&E, we talk all things Players and their Muppets cabaret, as well as Pipes and Drums and a Taylor Swift themed Jasper Jams. Lastly, in sports, we cover club basketball and bring you Games of the Week coverage. We hope you’ll take some time to check it all out!
As the semester winds down, we have two more issues ahead: Issue 12, which will publish next Tuesday, Nov. 18, and Issue 13, our final of the semester, which will publish following our Thanksgiving break on Dec. 2. Be sure to keep an eye out for both – not only will they contain news pertinent to the campus community as the semester winds down to a close, but news from me as I prepare to pass the torch onto the next editor-in-chief and staff who will be tasked with carrying our paper’s legacy forward through another successful academic year.
Until next time,
