Two Ways Editors Can Serve

Two Ways Editors Can Serve

The editor can serve the purpose of the newspaper in two ways: 1. by direct support in reporting on student activities, and 2. by affording supplementary educational material in writing about all kinds of interesting and important problems. The aim of news reporting is to stimulate members of the student body to work actively in the organisation. In a very small group this could be accomplished with a bulletin board and a telephone; in a larger one, circulars must be sent out. The typical "news"-papers—including student newspapers—probably evolved from the circular. The number of readers need not be large to make the printing and dispatching of a newspaper more economical than informing by letter.
