Titus believes that he has become “burned out” by working on staff for the past four terms, but more importantly, he has had to make academic sacrifices in order to be Editor. “I think the editor can really get bogged down,” stated Titus. After being editor, Titus has come to realize that a job in the newspaper industiy will no longer be an option. Yet, his desire to write has not been soured. During his tenure, Titus has cited other reasons for the prob lems he has experienced. Titus believes the current Student Ac tivities policy towards compensa tion for the editorial position is not adequate. “It is a sad fact that it takes money to exist, and it sounds mercenary, but time is money,” said Titus. The current compensation for the position of Editor is a tuition waiver, yet, according to Titus, this is almost ironic, since the editor cannot take full advantage of this. Titus started with 18 credits dur ing Fall term, but had to cut his credits to 12 when the load be came too much. Also, with the current Stu dent Activities policy, Titus be lieves that you will get one of two types of editors. “...[the paper will] either get good people who will put an ef fort in, or mediocre people,” stated Titus. Titus added that the editor can only put the paper, studies, or a social life first, unless you are an incredible person. Titus regretta bly chose the first.
