Our News section has five broad coverage areas: University Affairs, Academics, Student Life, Local News and "Beyond the Bubble" (matters relating to Princeton in the public sphere). What coverage area are you most interested in and why? What things on campus interest you that you would want to report on? *
Describe any previous writing or reporting experience, at or before Princeton. *
Being a good reporter requires the willingness and persistency to ask hard questions, be aggressive when necessary and cut through evasion. Given these traits, why do you think you would be a good reporter? *
Why do you want to write for Prince News? *
We expect our reporters to have their eyes open and help us find good stories. Give us three ideas (or pitches) for articles that could run in The Prince. *
