The Clackamas Print
The Print goes bi-weekly
for 2002-03 year
Editor-in-Chief
Welcome students, staff and fac
ulty to another year at Clackamas
Community College. I have the
pleasure this year to lead a very well-
rounded, energetic and knowledge
able staff at The Clackamas Print. I
would just like to take a few
moments of your time to explain
some changes this year that I believe
could benefit both the reader and the
staff of The Print.
The biggest change this year is
how we will be how often we will
publish our paper. Because the col
lege is facing some major budget
cuts, the English department and The
Print have come up with a compro
mise to reduce costs. Instead of run
ning the paper weekly, we will be
publishing every other Wednesday.
Our goal this year remains the
same: to provide every person in the
college community with timely
news, sports, and events, as well as
to teach students about deadlines
and responsibilities. I truly believe
this can and will be achieved, in
spite of the budget cuts.
One very positive point to this
change will provide us the time to
make sure that The Print is covering
as much news as possible. I want to
make sure that whatever we know,
"I truly believe
[our goal] can
and will be
achieved in spite
of the budget

you know. The new publishing dates
will allow us the time to see that this
happens.
I would like to invite everyone to
visit The Print’s website at
http://depts.clackamas.cc.or.us/print
to read about timely events and any
follow-up stories from previous
issues, just like to catch up on any
past issue.
The decision to publish bi-week
ly is not necessarily permanent but
seems to be the best option at this
time. It is strongly supported by The
Print staff members and I know that
each member of The Print is dedicat
ed to bring you a high-quality paper.
I also would like to invite stu
dents and faculty to feel free to
express their opinions about any
thing that has been written in The
Print. Guidelines to writing Letters
to the Editor are published on page-
five. If there are any areas that you
feel we should be covering more
extensively or you feel we haven’t
covered at all, you are welcome to

would like to advertise, feel wel
come to stop by. We are the paper

from people like you.
