It’s a simple concept to demonstrate.
Utilizing certain establishments for the certain tasks they are established for.
For whatever task it may be, utilize that certain establishment for the certain task it is you are trying to accomplish, because that establishment was established because it is the best thing for the task it is you are trying to accomplish.
It makes sense. Trust me.
In the case of establishments here on campus, let’s talk about us, The Informer, the school’s student run newspaper. Utilize us for getting the word out about what it is that you are doing.
I use us as an example in an effort of self-promotion or raising self-awareness.
Genuinely, I don’t.
I do so, in an effort to help you guys, our readers, the student body, the most crucial and critical part to our University here, with promotion and raising awareness for whatever it is you may be involved in.
Sincerely, I do.
A lot things come from the various organizations that you may or may not be a part of, and the work that you accomplish, through SGA, Greek Life, National Hispanics Unidas and many more. It is the governing that you enact, the philanthropies that you offer and the cultural awareness that you raise that makes University of Hartford what it is.
Come to us with what it is that you are doing, so we can make sure people take not and are aware of that.
We have been taking classes on and practicing very often the task of finding out something, whether it be on our own or through a campus organization reaching out to us, and then crafting a written story for our readers and the rest of the student body to be informed about.
We are here to help you. Under our masthead name “The Informer,” reads, “Officially keeping you informed since 1976.”
We are an establishment that does have a main purpose of documenting and recording events that occur, as they occur, so that people can know what happened when, and how and why it happened. We newspaper people, called “journalists,” are the people willing, able and very good at uncovering the full story of what happened, and telling more than just the obvious, surface layer of truth behind it.
However, the main purpose, and reason for this editorial, is to inform you guys, the student body, that we, “The Informer” are here and work our hardest to do that.
Take the Muslim Student Association for example. An organization on campus, that may not be popularly known, no offense to them, it’s just certain campus organizations may no be as recognized as others, came to us, to inform us, actually, of an event they were having.
It was their Eid Al-Adha Dinner they were hosting, and they were hosting it for the first time.
They came to us at The Informer to notify us of the event, so we could attend, cover and present the event in our paper, so the rest of the student body could experience what happened.
I went to cover it.
I talked to people who attended and took photographs of what was going on, and was able to be a part of an event that I would not have known was happening nor that it did happen, unless Iyas Azzuni came to me to make sure it was covered and told to the rest of the students.
That enlightenment to learn about the work and events from you guys can be experienced from you as well.
Other organizations, such as a recently started up athletic club, community service group or academic society, deserve to be recognized for what it is that is being done.
As I said, you guys, the student body, are the most crucial and critical part to our University here. It is you guys, who, through your scholastic studying, career advancement and social experimentation, comprise what makes this University.
Utilize us, so you guys can gain the full appreciation and recognition you deserve.
