The Daily Tar Heel Seeks New Staff for All Desks

Here's a chance to work behind the scenes of one of the best-read college newspapers in the nation.

The Daily Tar Heel is looking to hire new staff this fall, and the application process has begun.

The DTH is hiring writers, photographers, graphic artists, designers and cartoonists. No experience is necessary to apply.

Interested students are urged to attend one of two interest meeting this Tuesday and Wednesday. Both will take place at 7:30 p.m. in 105 Gardner Hall. Please note that this is a change from the originally publicized interest meeting location and time.

Stop by and meet an editor from each of the 13 desks that are hiring for the fall. They will be there to offer information about the requirements of a DTH staff member and to answer any questions about the desks and the application process.

Editors will be present after the meeting to answer individual questions.

Staff applications are now available and can be picked up at the interest meeting. Extra applications are located at the DTH front office, which is located in Suite 104 in the back of the Student Union.

They also can be found from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every day in the Pit.

If writing is not your strength but the mission, improvement and production of the DTH intrigues you, the paper has a spot for you, too.

The DTH also is seeking students who are interested in being on the Student Feedback Board. The board is a small, informal group that comes together four times during each semester with a DTH editor for a discussion about the paper's coverage.

A separate application is available for the board at the same locations as the staff applications.

Both the staff and board applications are due to the DTH front office by noon Sept. 7.

If you have any questions, please contact DTH Editor Katie Hunter at 962-4086.
