Today

October 3, 2008 · 1 Comment

I am at the Cushman High School Fair today.  Miriam and Josh are going to direct the tasks, which are listed below:

Your tasks for today:

  1. Josh and Margaret have a list of what has been distributed.  You guys are in charge of divvying up the remaining papers for distribution.  Please keep an accurate tally of who is taking how many papers and where they are going.  Update your list!
  2. We need to have all articles brainstormed, and preferably assigned, today.  Josh will keep a record, and Miriam and Josh will create a dummy.  Photo and graphics editors brainstorm ideas as well.
  3. Alessia: Finish invoices and list of who has bought what advertisements.
  4. Begin articles, but please don’t go wandering the halls for interviews without passes.

See you Tuesday – be ready to work!
