If this had been a great story about Innovation Campus, just imagine how Bardo and Heldman would be talking it up. It wouldn’t have won any prizes but that is beside the point. Perhaps after Paige gets done with her term in SGA she can run the Sunflower and just print great stories about Innovation Campus!!!

Im going to task you guys with creating a gossip column for retirement comunitites. This should boost more enrollment from seniors.

Things that make you go hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm • Oct 29, 2017 at 8:47 pm
Very happy for you all as your hard-work is paying on in the kind of positive recognition deserved! If any on campus try to marginalize your work as only “a college newspaper” you make sure to let them know you are one of the very BEST college newspapers and can compete with city and regional presses just as well! Co-curricular experience in action-and as always, INNOVATION!!
