Writer for my school newspaper 4 years, E-I-C for 2. My school newspaper used to be instantly discarded by the students at my school because it was poorly put together and utterly boring. When I became E-I-C, I made many changes. First of all, the articles now have a global feel to them (meaning they are not just about the school). I also put the newspaper online (it was not before I became E-I-C). The layout of the paper has also become much more professional. When I interviewed with volleges, I showed them a newspaper before I became E-I-C and after, and they were blown away.</p>
