This
publication is a three-week miracle - wholly developed, written,
shot and designed during an 18-day block at Colorado College. I
am truly impressed with our staff members.
They certainly know how to successfully combine passion and talent.
A professor here once told me students at, say, Grinnell could not
handle a course like this. CC students, he said, tend to be active,
proactive, and well...fearless. This group proved it to me.
Great things can happen under the deadline gun. There’s no
time to procrastinate, no time to put off calling a source, and
no time to put off doing your work. There’s no time to be
afraid, no time to panic as you realize people are going to read
your story. There is time to tell your story in the best way possible.
Inside you will find quirkiness and professionalism. Maybe that’s
why Dr. Hunter S. Thompson granted us a rare interview. Our staff
is dedicated and crafty, scrappy and relentless. Seventeen distinct
personalities - seventeen individuals who first met on a Monday
morning a little less than fifteen days ago.
This is the miracle they created.
