From the Editors May 20, 2011 The Chatterbox The Chatterbox Editoral Staff Shiwani Kamath, Co-Editor-in-Chief Marshalla Eves, Co-Editor-in-Chief Letter from the Editors Dear Readers, As I sit here and write my final submission for The Chatterbox, I can’t help but be overcome with waves of nostalgia. I started as a contributor four years ago, and now I leave as co-Editor-in-Chief. Admittedly, my view of these years is fogged up by the “Graduation Goggles” (nicely explained on “How I Met Your Mother”). Whenever someone asks me about my favorite parts of working for The Chatterbox, I immediately spout off accomplishments, like going online, re-formatting into a news magazine, adding color, and making our pages more interactive. As I clean out my desks and email, I am reminded of the downfalls. I cringe whenever I see a published copy filled with red editing marks or a picture of an interviewee with a squashed head. I am absolutely thankful that I can certainly think of more positive notes than bad ones (self-serving bias, anyone?) Nevertheless, no EIC can produce a paper alone, and I am indebted to our fine staff, Editorial board, and Advisors for creating a worthy set of issues this year. From our production team and business staff to our writers, columnists and photographers, I have never seen such collaboration in this or- 1 Mia Manavalan, Senior Managing Editor Mac Calvert, Photo Editor Clayton Castle, Fine Arts Editor Serena Dugan, View Points Editor Emily Friedman, Style & Culture Editor Simon Lazarus, Copy Editor Jonah Roth, News & Features Editor JP Schmitz, Cartoon Editor Riley Theurer, Visual Editor Adam Wolf, Sports Editor Tanner Walters, Gleam Editor ganization and I am grateful for such commitment. I must also give a special thanks to our Advisors, Mrs.Wolfe & Mrs. Gerwe-Perkins, who work tirelessly on our behalf. We could not be successful in what we do without your help. I am very grateful to Mrs.Heldman and the rest at the Alumni Office; your support in continuing this paper is truly appreciated. Thanks must be given to administration and the teachers who continuously spare a few minutes to give us words of support. Thank you, Mrs.Wathen, for always giving us the opportunity to browse through past volumes; your patience and assistance is duly noted. Lastly, thank you, readers. Thank you for your encouraging words and valued critiques. As Abraham Lincoln once said, “He has a right to criticize, who has a heart to help.” This year at The Chatterbox has been amazing though. I’ve seen significant changes in the quality of the paper and the staff members. Everyone has grown so much and knowing what I’ve seen this year, I know next year will be even better. I leave the newspaper in good, capable hands. Until then, I hope you enjoy my final issue, the SENIOR edition. Let’s reminisce through the pages and continue counting-down till May 26. Sincerely, Shiwani Kamath, Co-Editor-in-Chief Walnut Hills High School The Chatterbox Policy Statement The Chatterbox has been guaranteed the right of freedom of the press through the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.
