This blog is going to be different than other college blogs that you’ll see around here.
Like the radio show This American Life, This American Campus- Towson covers any topic around campus, but in a different way. The whole idea of capturing news in Baltimore is pretty boring. The biggest news topics that are being covered right now are the government, Michael Jackson’s death, the swine flu pandemic and any shocking or criminal stories happening in the state of Maryland. At Towson University, it’s always about the swine flu, Student Government, latest news in the Towson community and any arts events.
All of that has been going on for most of the year so far. This blog should cover the things that are a little out of the ordinary. It’s time to wake up campus journalism with a jolt.
The blog will look at the unsung heroes, the bands that didn’t win Battle of the Bands, the people of the Electronic Media and Film department who made strange videos. It will cover the uncovered areas that no one thinks about around campus, stories from the library and the residence halls. Maybe even Smith Hall, where the science geeks roam, someone might be doing a strange, unexpected experiment.
Who knows? All of it is out there, waiting to be found. Stay tuned for This American Campus!
