Between pulling all-nighters at Mugar, riding on the T, cheering at hockey games and eating at 100 Bay State Road, we encourage you to pick up a copy of The Daily Free Press in print while rushing to class, all while dodging the many proselytizers, you will encounter on Commonwealth Avenue.
Expect to read a student newspaper completely evolved from our first issue on May 5, 1970 — we’re putting out more digital content, especially through social media and multimedia, to keep you plugged into the BU community. This semester, we will supply you with coverage on the presidential elections, the new Student Union election cycle, guides to nightlife and city happenings.
The FreeP has expanded its multimedia and and social media presence with its new digital team, led by Online Editor Lauren
Dezenski. Follow us on Twitter, “like” us on Facebook and read our blog, Commonwealth Crossroads. Through our online expansion, we plan to provide content that is not only accurate and fair, but also compelling and diverse.
And, of course, we will uphold many of our age-old traditions, including our print production Monday through Thursday. After all, what would The FreeP be without its daily crossword puzzle?
We want our fellow Terriers to contribute as much as possible to our production this fall, so look out for opportunities to tell
us what you want to read about.
With this in mind, we encourage you to read your favorite section of The FreeP, whether it’s hard news, sports, features or opinion, and share it with your friends and classmates — or perhaps just use it to make a newspaper hat (batteries not included).
#HappyFreePing,
