Looking Ahead

HillTOPICS and The Complement

by Connie Kent

This is the story of two campus publications. Both are written by and for RVM residents.

Recent talks with the editors of the two indicate that both publications have personnel needs and both offer unique opportunities to contribute to the life of our community. The two publications have a good working relationship; they don’t compete, they complement each other.

If you would like more information or would like to explore either opportunity, please contact the person below.
