Ugh. This guy again.
This will be my fourth semester on The Badger Herald’s Editorial Board, which makes me now the most seasoned member of a board of unseasoned journalism veterans. My friends and readers know me for my love of infrastructure investment, the way I mention I grew up between Beloit and Rockford, Ill., in all of my columns and for my undying love of Brazil.
Politically, I follow the ‘of no party or clique’ maxim that defines one of my favorite magazines, The Atlantic. You could say I’m liberal, but since I want a job in reporting after graduation it’s just easier for me to say that I’m an independent. I bring an expertise on local and state issues that comes from my stint as a city and state reporter during the four semesters I reported for the Herald’s news section.

Your comment may be deleted if it is inappropriately off topic or promotional or if it is unnecessarily rude or contains personal attacks. We may delete comments for other reasons as well. Just keep it simple and focus on your points as respectfully as possible.
We allow and encourage comments employing satire, wit and irony to make points. Do not flag comments just because you disagree.
