Why did you join the Black & White? I joined the paper because I recognize that high schoolers otherwise have limited opportunities to simultaneously influence, inform and amplify voices in the community.
Why are you well suited to write/edit for your section or to perform your job? Aside from reporting for the Black & White as a news writer last year, I’ve explored various journalistic styles and techniques in journalism programs at Georgetown University and American University.
