  • Establishing a new University newspaper?

    Given that Tass has now left this team, were without a PR person again. This, obviosuly, should not be allowed to stand, so we need to find ourselves someone else to write our newspaper, as well as finding a new name for it. Having written the CNN in the previous DG, I'd be willing to take up the position; is there anyone else who would like to?

    I'm afraid to let too many functions drop on your and Arch's shoulders - I certainly wouldn't mind if you did it, but do you think you'll manage? Granted, your footy manager skills won't be in much demand until later in the season
    "The number of political murders was a little under one million (800,000 - 900,000)." - chegitz guevara on the history of the USSR.
    "I think the real figures probably are about a million or less." - David Irving on the number of Holocaust victims.

      I might give it a try, but I'm not sure if I can handle it... there are a few Busy RL Things (tm) going on .

        I might also be able to help, but I must agree that RL is a pain in the old neck.

        Pleasures flowing,
        Fortune smiles and so should you.

          Bah, don't worry. I managed to serve as Commish, CNN Editor and Governor of about half the faction at the end of the first DG...

              Ok... any suggestions regarding the name? Should I just keep it as the University Tribune, or use a new one?

                The least we can do is change it. I never liked the Tribune anyway, and since the vote was in the public area I guess the Hive members staged it.

                It's your call, but I'd like Planet University Post. Or PUP. Surely we can scrap up a picture of a nice doggy somewhere as a logo

                  Well, I've got no real preference (although I don't much like the Tribune name either...), so I'm open to suggestions.

                    If you can do it, GT, I'm all for it.

                    Regarding the name, I liked moomin's suggestion, but I'd offer my own: "The Science Monitor".
                    I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                          Or how about the PUTTER:

                            Nice idea, Googlie... after all, we're high on com-putters, aren't we?

                              None of these names have particularly hit me, but I like Googlie's idea.
