With this semester coming to a close, classes are having their final assignments, and this is no different for Lancer Media, but with a few different purposes than the average final or benchmark.

The journalism students have been working on their partner stories, which are stories done with an official Lancer Media staff member and a student who doesn’t take the class. The point of the assignment is to introduce those who are interested in Journalism to the process of developing, writing, and publishing a story.

“When I was working with my partner, it was fun to teach someone who wasn’t in the class how the process of publishing a story happens,” said editor Jason Byrd.

The following is a sample of some of the work the reporters produced:
