To Whom it May Concern (that’s me, I guess),
I regret to inform you that I will be resigning from my position as the Publisher of the Campus Times. After careful consideration, I have decided that the role of publisher no longer suits me.
My time in the CT has been splendid; I have fond memories of the staff and of our space. Yet, I must confess, I have lived a lie. This position was not what I was promised: to publish. I have tweaked out writing a million emails, corresponded with advertisers, broken my back delivering papers, but NEVER ONCE have I pressed the “publish” button on WordPress as publisher.
You know, as a newspaper, we’re not supposed to lie. Journalistic integrity and all. So humour me. Why am I the PUBLISHer if I don’t get to publish articles? Why do I get to sit through every production just to watch our editor-in-chief click the “publish” button for every single article? This title is misleading and wrong. Give me the power to publish. Put that in my job description. LET ME PUSH THE “PUBLISH” BUTTON. Emmely, I’m coming for you.
Best regards,
Sherene Yang
Former Publisher
Soon-to-be Editor-in-Chief (watch out)
