DaytonMostMetro.com, with the support of Southern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) and the Downtown Dayton Partnership, is proud to introduce our newest featured section – Dayton Campus Connect! Formerly a program started by the DDP to connect college students to Downtown Dayton, Dayton Campus Connect has now been expanded to connect college students to the entire Dayton Region. We’ve recently put out a call to all of the area colleges for interns to join DaytonMostMetro.com as contributing writers who will be covering local events, theatre, music, dining, active living, film and more as they earn college credits. For this fall quarter we have brought on fifteen interns from the University of Dayton and Wright State University:
- Andrea Wintrow (UD)
- Cris Nance (WSU)
- Eugenia Volfson (WSU)
- Megan Lachey (WSU)
- Olivia Woodruff (WSU)
- Rebecca Ann Weaver (WSU)
- Jill Pajka (UD)
- Justin Guinn (UD)
- Megan Garrison (UD)
- Cara Spray (WSU)
- Cathryn O’Connell (UD)
- Joshua A McGrath (WSU)
- Lindsey Stover (UD)
- Mariah Douglas (UD)
- Natalie Middleton (WSU)
According to Bill Pote (DaytonMostMetro.com publisher), “we have a chance to give our readers a fresh perspective on the things happening in the region with Dayton Campus Connect. And as we introduce these and other college students to the things our region has to offer, we have a chance to keep some of these students wanting to stay here once they graduate – with some valuable writing experience at the region’s premiere online magazine, of course!”
We’ll be posting all student articles here in our Dayton Campus Connect section (which you can reach directly at www.DaytonCampusConnect.com), and using our Dayton Campus Connect Facebook page to let you know about new articles as they are published (be sure to “like” our page today). The program will continue in future quarters/semesters and we hope to get students from other area colleges involved. And if you are a college student who is reading this, be sure to check out the rest of our site to find out what is happening outside of your campus – you’ll be glad you did!
