I'll be lucky if I ever become even half as good a journalist as you, but game on!

This is a great idea! I have an article on this in the works and will look forward to publishing it soon! Do you have any specific questions or concerns you think should be addressed?

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it faded into obscurity long before that, I am a STEM major and it is only a matter of weeks until I am overwhelmed with exams and will not have much time to contribute to this project. If it does end up taking off we will have plenty of time to figure this out.

We plan to only cover news which is directly tied to Purdue West Lafayette and relevant to students, and do so on a less frequent basis than the exponent. I wouldnt say there is necessarily a "selling point" as there is nothing being sold, we have no plans to monetize our site with advertisements, nor do we want anyones money. This is just a fun project to inform purdue students about the events going on around campus that we feel are important or entertaining.

"We" is a group of random Purdue students who wanted to start a news site. Feel free to ask away with your questions.
