they exceeded my expectations.
They worked together making
sure all events were covered up
to our deadline.
The yearbook staff learned
everything from scratch which
brought fresh ideas to the year-

learned new software, and ed-
ited photos digitally. They pub-
lished a yearbook blending tra-
ditions with technology.
I can’t say it has been easy,
without any problems, or mis-
takes. I woke up many times
worrying about the deadlines,
budget, and missing events.
With all that said it was excit-
ing to be apart of this group. 1
