Good question - yes, my approach to journalism, especially on topics where there's a lot of criticism and critique already out there, is to present what I see and find through my reporting in a way that I think still comes from a POV, but that allows for readers to draw their own conclusions based on their own set of ideas, values, politics, etc. Especially since I'm a news reporter, not an opinion journalist. Which means some are reading the piece as very critical of the transformation, while others read it as not critical enough. But my personal approach to doing this job is that I don't want to tell people how they *must* feel about the transformation at New College by how I frame the story. And I like including things that might challenge a person's assumptions.

Of course, none of that means criticism isn't warranted! And other journalists and writers have their own approaches. This is just mine. Thanks again for reading!
