Welcome back to another semester of The University Daily Kansan.
We are proud to launch a new version of our Web site, www.kansan.com. It’s the product of many months of work by our Web coordinator, and it’s designed with you in mind. The organization is more user-friendly, and we’ll have plenty of interactive features to complement our daily print edition, including videos, photo galleries, hyperlinks and multimedia presentations. We also have blogs covering everything from pop culture to a nontraditional student’s perspective of University life. Our editors also will be blogging, so tune in for a glimpse into the inner workings of The Kansan.
We’re busy developing other new ways to serve your needs this spring. We’re working to create a letter-writing tool for Kansan.com that will let readers send e-mails to state and University officials. In the coming weeks, we plan to launch Free for All Live, a video version of Free for All. Look for us on Wescoe Beach to express your opinions, vent your frustrations or engage in epic debates about Chuck Norris or Ugg boots.
In our print edition, we will be publishing more national and international news to keep you informed. We’re still a campus newspaper, however, so you’ll see plenty of news specific to the University. As Student Senate elections take place and the men’s basketball team vies for an undefeated season, we will be there every step of the way. From club sporting events and community service projects to celebratory occasions and the drama of college life, we are here to represent you. So, let us know what you think, and stay tuned this semester for more changes along the way.
