Why I joined The News-Letter, and why you should, too

I walked into the Student Involvement Fair just as overwhelmed and lost as every other freshman going through the sensory overload of the first week of college. I wound my way through row after row of clubs, putting my name and email down for a few, until I saw a group of students occupying the path, thrusting newspapers at all passersby and corralling students towards the sign-up laptops. I took a paper, got into a prolonged conversation with one of the editors, typed my information into the computer. The rest is history.
