We want your letters to the editor!

On Friday, October 13, the first issue of the Beak ‘n’ Eye was released and included were two voice columns “Liberal Arts left in the shadows” and “#BloodOnOurFingertips”. The student-run newspaper and website are public forums, which means that readers are encouraged to respond to the ideas published by submitting letters to the editor. The Beak ‘n’ Eye staff wants to hear from you in a Letter to the Editor format. Newspaper staff welcomes responses from the student body, staff, and administration.

If interested, please submit responses to the authors by Friday, October 20 (see guidelines below) and visit Mrs. Hansen in room 202 for more information.
