stonerbearAs a daily publication, BlogDailyHerald is a well-oiled machine that can only function successfully as long as its several staff members are all on the same page. To this end, BlogDH holds weekly staff meetings on 5 p.m. on Sunday evenings so that writers can flesh out their ideas, make connections with other writers with whom they hope to collaborate, and get feedback from the editorial staff.

Something big is coming to BlogDailyHerald

By: / February 14, 2014 / Comments Off /

unnamedA week from today, you’re going to notice a big, big change on our site. Our redesign team (big shout out to Jason Hu ’15 and Joe Stein ’16 in particular) has been working tirelessly to make this pipe dream come true. It’s a long time coming, and we hope you love it as much as we do. Web sites with smirking bears that wear hats as their logos will never be the same.

In Blog We Trust,

The Editors

Computer Hipster 97 but class of 98

We’ll be here day in and day out to keep you company as you go full speed ahead until the school year’s end. Get ready for a semester chock-full of bear heads, catharses, and punning.

Ready, set, (winter) break!

We’ve had a great semester up here on the Hill, but it’s time for us to pack up, head on home, and have some quality bonding time with our couches. We’ll be posting periodically throughout the break, so check back for updates. Remember to keep sending news, tips, and suggestions to blog@browndailyherald.com, and shoot us an email if you’re interested in joining our squad in the spring.

Happy Holidays (!), enjoy your break, and we’ll see y’all in 2013.

<3,
