RICHARD CURTIS, USA Today, managing editor/design > As a Design

School student, learning how to juggle a strenuous and extremely demanding

academic schedule with the responsibilities of working at the Technician (editor, 1971-

1972) were lessons that stayed with me over the past 40 years. It was one of the grand

experiences of my life.

MIKE ALSTON, Teach for America, educator > My peers and co-workers in Student Media (WKNC general manager,

2009-2010) became family. We shared struggles and successes, good days and

bad days. Most importantly, we shared and reached common goals and learned a hell of

a lot in the process.

GREG MULHOLLAND, Sageworks, senior analyst and director of strategic alliances > Student Media (photographer,

2004-2005) connected me with parts of N.C. State that I would never have seen

otherwise. In my time there, I made friends University wide, and was able to understand

points of view that I had never before considered.

BEN McNEELY, News 14 Carolina, senior web producer > Student Media (Technician managing editor, 2004-2005) gave practical

experience in journalism, but it also gave me more: A vocation, friendship and a

chance to make a di!erence at N.C. State.

CARIE PAGE, Educause, community engagement manager, Next Generation Learning Challenges > One of the magical

things about Technician (co-editor, 2004-2005) is that it’s yours. Each day, eight

pages of text and copy come from your camera, your keyboard, your team. Knowing

that the student body would be pulling open the paper each day instilled a great deal of responsibility. And, at the end of

the day, an overwhelming sense of pride for your friends and fellow sta! members.

Business officeAn outlet for advertisers, the business o"ce o!ers advertising sales for print and online media, sponsorship opportunities for radio and video as well as advertisement design. In addition, students assist media outlets in marketing e!orts and lead cross-promotional events. > 515-2411, ncsu.edu/sma/advertising

WKNC prides itself in o!ering forms of music that cannot be heard anywhere else on the dial. Primary formats are indie rock, metal, hip-hop and electronica. > 515-2401, wknc.org

WindhoverA literary and visual arts journal, Windhover includes written and graphic arts representing the creativity of students, faculty, sta! and alumni. The magazine emphasizes poetry, fiction, drama, and essays, as well as the visual arts — photography, painting, sculpture and drawings. The magazine also recognizes musicians with a CD. > 515-5012, ncsu.edu/windhover

TechnicianA daily newspaper, the Technician reports the events of interest to the University community and functions as a meeting place for campus opinions through letters and guest-written material. The paper is available five days a week during the fall and spring semesters and once a week during summer sessions. > 515-2411, technicianonline.com

REBECCA HESLIN, USA Today, online life editor > My time in Technician’s (editor, 2005-2006) newsroom proved to be a one-

stop shop for my journalism education. I entered the job market armed with skills not taught in any classroom — the most

marketable being experience in every facet of the news publishing process, something

no J-school can provide.

ROB BRADLEY, D.H. Gri!n Construction, marketing coordinator

> Everyone who graduates from NCSU will have a degree, but how many will have a

demonstrated ability to work well in teams. Thanks to Student Media (photographer,

2002-2007), I did; and I have a career because of it.

RYLAND O. CLARK, Technimark, quality engineer > My involvement in student

media (Wolf TV station manager, 2009-2010) allowed me to uncover my true

potential. I was surrounded by a great support team that helped turn my dream

into a reality and make a di!erence at N.C. State.

CORDERA “C.J.” GUION, State Employees’ Credit Union, financial

services o!cer > The thing that I loved most about Student Media was the fact

that almost every decision lies in the hands of the student. As Nubian Message editor

(2011-2012), it almost seemed like I was running my very own business.

LUCY TATUM AUSTIN, attorney > As editor of the Agromeck (2003-2004),

I learned to persevere in doing careful, detail-oriented work, cultivating a diligence

which is essential in my current practice as an attorney.

RYAN DANIELS, Democratic National Convention Committee, deputy press secretary > At N.C. State I learned how to create an e!ective pitch, which is the

ability to sell an idea or story to someone. Working at Student Media (business o"ce sales, 2005-2007) allowed me to practice

what I learned and perfect my ability to pitch by selling ad space for the newspaper, radio station, and yearbook. My experience

has translated into valuable skills that I’ve been able to use in every job I’ve had since

graduating.
