Our journalistic principles

By Editorial Staff

Tags editorial

This semester, The Spectator has decided to cover a variety of controversial topics ranging from issues at the Health and Counselling Centers to changes in the Africana Studies Department. In each and every issue, The Spectator is always striving to publish accurate, relevant, newsworthy material, with the goal of keeping the community informed and engaged.

When presented with challenging content to deliver, the Spec staff is careful to weigh our dual responsibilities of transparency and the good of the community before choosing to publish a story. We are proud of our Style Guide, which is based on the Society of Professional Journalist’s ethical guidelines, and which devotes specific sections towards journalistic standards and fair reporting. 

We appreciate that the College community has responded passionately to our work this semester. We want to provide every party with equal space to voice an opinion. We look forward to the continued discussions that our reporting has initiated and encouraged, and we invite your feedback through letters-to-the-editor.
