Meet and Greet on Monday, Sept. 16

Go directly to the Faculty Lounge. If you don't know where it is, follow someone who does. Dress better than you normally do, as in how leadership dresses on Wednesdays.

The purpose is to break the ice with people you may interviewing, so that when you go to interview them they will know who you are. You don't have to take notes (because we want our guests to feel comfortable) but ask questions and take mental notes of possible story ideas.

It would be a good idea to go home and write down your thoughts, as class does not meet on Tuesday. We have an 81-minute period on Wednesday.
