Hi, Bisons! It’s hard to believe summer is already over, but here we are entering the 2018-2019 school year already. So, I thought I would give you all an update on Lumination Network for this upcoming semester.

First things first, we have a couple of additions to our editorial staff. Senior Russell Vannozzi, our previous sports editor, is now our co-managing editor along with senior Cole Gray. Sophomore Spencer Boehme will be joining the editorial staff as our new sports editor. Both Russell and Spencer are excellent, hardworking reporters, and I know they will do great at their new positions.

As editor, I’m looking forward to the growth of Lumination, and I hope to continue to build the site into something that all students, alumni, faculty and parents read each day.

Russell, Cole, Spencer and I most certainly couldn’t do it alone, though! We have several talented students contributing to Lumination this year. Check out our “About” page to see our full list of gifted writers and photographers on the Lumination staff.

Notably, one of these trusted staff members, senior Ben Davis, is back as our Chief Photographer. Ben has won back-to-back national Excellence in Journalism awards for his photographs of the total solar eclipse and of president’s convocation. He is the first in Lumination history to do so!

On the radio side of things, Cavin Jacobson and Lebron Hill are teaming up as our co-Radio Directors. Make sure to tune in to hear some of your favorite Lipscomb artists.

Starting senior year leads one to reflect, and I can safely say that serving as Editor-in-Chief of Lumination has truly been one of the best parts of my college experience. This year, we’ve got lots of new and exciting things planned. But we’re still working hard to continue to bring you campus and Nashville news, feature stories on your fellow students, detailed coverage of Lipscomb sporting events, thought-provoking opinion pieces, captivating photo galleries and multimedia packages and more.

Also, make sure to stay updated on what’s happening on campus by following Lumination Network on Twitter, by liking us on Facebook and by following us on Instagram.

If you are interested in joining the Lumination staff, please feel free to contact me to find out more information by emailing editor@luminationnetwork.com. We welcome all majors! Meetings are at 11 a.m. on Mondays in the new computer lab — Ezell 155.

I’m really looking forward to continue bringing you all the latest through the student news network. I have a feeling it’s going to be a great year. Thanks for reading!
