As you may have already noticed, my name is Logan Butts and I am taking over as the Editor-in-Chief of Lumination for the fall semester.
I am following in the footsteps of many great editors including the most recent and longest holder of the position Cory Woodroof. Cory taught me almost everything I know about running a news site, so all complaints regarding my performance in the position should be sent to him.
On a serious note, my goal is to continue and build upon the great successes of the former Editors-in-Chief while also putting my own unique spin on the position.
I was not the only person to be handed the keys to a branch of Lumination for this semester. Janice Ng will be taking over as News Director of the Lumination News broadcast. If her time as Assistant News Director is any indication, I know she will be successful in the role.
Thomas Jones will continue his role as the Program Director of Lumination Radio. Be sure to listen to his show, Sports60, and all the other programs on Lumination Radio.
As for the Lumiantion website staff, we lost many great seniors to graduation in the spring, but we also have plenty of great writers and editors returning or joining the staff this fall.
Brianne Welch will continue to put in great work as one of our managing editors, while our staff photographer Erin Turner will be joining her in the role.
Brianna Langley, who was also named Assistant News Director of Lumination News broadcast, is our new News Editor. Jesica Parsley and Erika Thornsberry have been promoted to the role of co-Sports Editors, while former Sports Editor Aaron Schmelzer will be taking on the role of Chief Staff Writer.
And in case you thought we cast our old Editor-in-Chief aside, Cory Woodroof will hanging around as a Senior Editor.
Be watching out for our coverage of anything and everything Lipscomb this fall. We strive to be your number one source for Bison news.
