Hear ye, here ye, loud-mouthed Lobos!
Your friends can only take so much of your opinions, no matter how well thought out they are. If you’re tired of your rants falling on deaf ears, try your hand at addressing the public as a columnist for the Daily Lobo.
Start by sending me an email, giving me an idea of who you are and what you’d be throwing at our readers every week, or every month, depending on how often you want to step on the soapbox. The most desirable applicants will be unapologetic about their views, but at the same time have enough material to support them. Everyone has gripes, but the columnist is one who eloquently expresses herself or himself. This is what separates them from the casual Facebook user who has enough vigor to cram in a status update, but can’t really substantiate beyond this.
Faculty, students and staff are all welcome to apply, though students must be enrolled in at least six credit hours for the fall semester. Only students are eligible to be paid for their work.
Don’t think you can make the commitment, but still have something to get off your chest? Please, inundate my inbox with letters to the editor. You can reach me at opinion@dailylobo.com
