Hey ya’II!
Welcome back to Montreat
for this new 2012-13 school year,
and welcome for the first time to all
the new students! I hope you guys
have all had great summers, I know
I have, but it’s that time of the year
again to get your head back in the
game.
It’s crazy to think about being
the Editor of the Whetstone for this
year, and I think that writing this is
the first time that it’s actually hit
ting me. Montreat is going through
so many changes and adjustments
coming into this semester, and I
feel privileged to be working with
the Whetstone during this time of
change.
Speaking of all the new
changes, what are all your thoughts
on them? We have the meal swipe
Huck situation, the new professors,
and of course, our precious ice
cream, to name a few. All these new
changes create new opportunities to
write your thoughts (and even tips
or tricks for getting through them) for
the Whetstone.
There’s another hot topic
brewing that involves us all, and
that’s the Presidental Election. With
all the pictures and speeches on
television and in papers, we love
hearing students talk about the
current events that are important to
them. Just make sure to be respect
ful, please!
The Whetstone is also great
for getting the word out about events
or clubs that you are passionate
about. Love Seeds? Write something
about an event that is coming up, or
tell students why they should come
to your meetings. See a great show
in Asheville? Students love hearing
about ways to get off campus and
explore the city of Ash-Vegas in new
ways. Same goes with class trips,
Backcountry, big sports games, art
galleries, and even movie nights in
your dorm lobby.
The Whetstone comes out
every other Monday, and the dead
lines for articles is midnight on the
Tuesday before. That being said,
our next deadline is September
19th, so mark your calanders!
Finally, remember- If you
don’t see anything in the Whet
stone that you find interestng, write
something for it that interests YOU.
We would love to hear about it,
and I’m sure other students would
as well. This is your school, your
paper, and your semester, so have
fun with it! Talk to you soon!
