Happy #SaveStudentNewsroom day! At first, @thedailynu was just an extracurricular, but it's quickly become home to many of my best friends and the place where I've grown in my capabilities and my self-confidence. Check out some of the work my friends and I have been doing:
1) Did you know we have a whole page dedicated to COVID-19 coverage? While the University may not be sending out email updates anymore, this page is updated every day with stories about COVID-19's impact in Chicago and Evanston: https://dailynorthwestern.com/category/covid-19/
2) Next a few tributes to my first friends on campus that helped bring me to The Daily:
I'll always know @stephencouncil for his Southern charm, but you should know him for the amazing business journalism he puts out, like this story about Rheaply! https://dailynorthwestern.com/2020/04/10/covid-19/rheaply-northwestern-lab-launch-medical-supply-exchange-to-fight-shortage-crisis/

3) Unsure how I'd come up with story pitches if I didn't have @PamesJollard to bounce them off of! Recently and @birenbomb broke down the CARES Act to help students understand how they might be impacted: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2020/04/06/campus/millions-of-college-students-left-out-of-coronavirus-stimulus-payments/
4) These days @GSvirnovskiy is busy making sure our website stays alive and updated, but before that, he was using his insane talent covering sports, like when he compared losing a game to getting the weather wrong: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2019/10/24/sports/womens-soccer-northwestern-falls-to-minnesota-in-late-game-heartbreaker-austin-injured/
5) I would've never kept writing without @troy_closson's kindness every time I came to the newsroom. The amount of reporting that went into his recap of the Bursar's Office Takeover's legacy is insane and one of my all-time favorite Daily stories: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2018/05/03/in-focus/in-focus-fifty-years-after-bursars-office-takeover-northwestern-reconciles-continued-parallels-in-black-student-concerns/
6) @mar1ssamart1nez has inspired me with her smize since my first Daily DNI meeting, and as EIC she's done so much more, like pioneering Spanish language coverage and tackling important stories like this one with empathy: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2020/04/11/covid-19/the-myth-of-the-great-equalizer-preliminary-data-show-black-evanston-residents-contract-virus-at-higher-rates/
7) The way @YunkyoMoonK gives voice to student activism and identity makes me wish I could write with the eye and the emotion that she does, this is just one example: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2020/04/22/campus/graffiti-handshakes-and-the-perpetual-foreigner-asian-americans-at-northwestern-report-alienation-amid-covid-19/
8) @daisy_conant always supports The Daily's coverage local and national politics's impact on campus, but more importantly she supports my bad jokes!! Check out the former: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2019/11/04/campus/three-months-after-the-el-paso-shooting-students-from-city-discuss-the-shooting-aftermath/
9) There are so many more people and stories I wish I could tweet out, like my PA babies @hannah_feuer @delaneygnelson @PAndres2001 @samanthaagu1lar or my personal role model @caity_henderson, but lucky for you there's one place you can get all of it: our newsletter!
