The New England Classic is the independent satirical newspaper at Boston College. I joined during my freshman year, at a time when its staff was a loose, online collective of writers and pranksters.
We grew each year as a campus media outlet, but also as a meaningful student organization. By my senior year, I was running weekly meetings for a close-knit staff of BC's best writers and pranksters!

PRINT ISSUES
PRINT ISSUES
I had an active role in producing our four-page print issue every semester since my sophomore year. Over the years, I worked on every aspect of the process: writing, editing, layout, graphic design, promotion, and distribution around campus! A full archive of NEC print issues is available online.
VIDEO CONTENT
Not satisfied by the written word alone, I produced, edited, filmed, and appeared in various videos published by The Classic over the years. Sketch comedy, promo videos, news satire, you name it!
EVERYTHING ELSE
More coming... eventually!
