As graduation looms, I am forced to face the feelings of leaving the student newspaper which has become my second home over the last three years. I’ve had the privilege to learn and grow in this newsroom while making great friends. As the staff editors know, I have also conquered some challenges here. I’d like to dedicate my final DeJamz to the ups and downs I have faced in the basement of the DePaul Center — from breakups to getting my dream internship — and oversharing through it all. Thanks always for listening, readers and editors alike, whether you wanted to or not.
And that’s it from me! I wish I could list every member of our staff and give the many reasons I love you all. I am signing off as editor-in-chief. It has been a true pleasure, DePaul community. There’s still so much left to come.
