I remember well the first day I walked into the Daily News as a new member of the staff in September 1987.
One of the Daily News’ correspondents in Northeast Nebraska — who I’ve known for a long time — recently sent me an email with some kind words in relation to my plans to retire from the full-time editor’s position at the Daily News at the end of this month.
It’s not just reporters who conduct interviews. Students often find themselves having to do interviews as part of a class assignment. Human resources representatives conduct job interviews.
In early June — to help commemorate the 75th anniversary of the D-Day invasion during World War II — the Daily News published something completely different.

Creating an even playing field for a free and diverse press in the United States is the goal of what’s officially titled the “Journalism Competition and Preservation Act.”
You’ve probably noticed the advertisements that have been published already in the Daily News. But I can’t help but offer another mention of the Norfolk Area Business Hall of Fame.
A few student-related items to pass along in this space today.

I recently had a Daily News reader ask me for some tips on how best to write a letter to a state legislator. It was a good question because state senators likely receive a large number of letters and emails on legislative bills.
