Beat thoughts

I think I would like to work on a beat this semester dealing with either how education at WSU has been affected by the economy, or something concerning the administration at WSU (or maybe all of Pullman). What else?...I'm not sure. I know I'm interested in writing stories that will affect people in the community somehow, and that contain information that is valuable to citizens in the area. I could also see myself doing a beat about the environment...I don't know what to choose!

I like the environment idea because I think I could write a lot of different kinds of stories (at least all the different kinds we have to write this semester) about enviromental issues in Pullman and just Washington in general. There's usually a lot of good speeches throughout the semester from people who come to WSU to discuss environmental issues.
