New equipment, jealous students
Well, we’ve been waiting and waiting for a new stash of computers to arrive to the newspaper/yearbook lab, and while we still have a ways to go, I am presently sitting, typing and staring at my 17-inch, flatscreen monitor while my students are still stuck in front of those block dinosaur monitors that are soooo 2002. As Nelson from The Simpsons would say, “Ha, ha!!”
Oh yeah, did I mention the brand new Adobe Creative Suite that is installed on my computer? Yes, we (well, just me at this point) are rolling InDesign/Photoshop CS4. Uh hmm, take that Rock Canyon. And you call yourself the best high school newspaper in the state of Colorado? We know for a fact that you only roll CS3.
I may only have a hand up on my students for a day or two, as our entire lab will be transformed prior to spring break, and our April issue will fully be utilizing the CS4 software.
Publications life is good at Ralston Valley.
