Letter from the Editor

The Pioneer welcomes you back! Everyone new and old, sick and healthy.  If you haven’t been taken to the hospital yet, congratulations!  Living on campus is starting to feel like living in a bubble of germy madness and I’m finding myself happy to dodge anyone and everyone in the absolute…

The Struggle to Provide the Best Obtainable Version of the Truth

College is a fast four years.  You move in, you let loose, find some good friends and POOF – it’s all over.  Then it’s you against the world staring into the eyes of your first employer who is probably hesitant to hire you in the first place.  Our advice? Take…

Letter From the Editors – 11.10.10

Dear readers, Just take a minute to sit back and relax.  Don’t be worried that it’s already past half way through the semester. There are six weeks (to the day) left of school…and that’s including Thanksgiving!  Not that we’re counting or anything, but the spring semester is slowly creeping up…

Letter to the Readers – 11-03-2010

Dear readers,

So what’s next on the agenda?  We’ve all gone through the endless nights of studying, wanting to pour the coffee over our heads, hoping it would somehow give us even more energy to stay up and finish cramming for those midterms.  Then we rejoiced the end of midterms by enjoying the spooky festivities of Halloween this past weekend.

A Letter From the Editors in Chief

To the Association for Campus Programming Executive Board and the Offices of Student Life and Services- in regards to Homecoming 2010 Photo Collage:

Although it is not our responsibility to represent C.W. Post any certain way – positive or negative – it was NOT our intention to denote the lack of coverage or diversity ACP and the Office of Student Life and Leadership worked so hard to produce.  We recognize your efforts and agree that there could have been more exemplifying Post unity, which you so carefully described to us.  That being said, as much as we appreciate your comments and concerns, we have the right to publicize Homecoming in any way we desire.

Letter to Readers – 9.27.10

BOO! Did we scare you? No? Either way, Halloween is officially here! And whether you join in on the festivities or not, it is the perfect time for throwing your cares away after a long week of exams and midterm papers.  Even though Halloween is not technically a school tradition, after four years we found it to be a holiday where all students at C.W. Post come together.  Post unity truly shines on this particular weekend.  We don’t know if it’s thinking of creative costumes with friends or just the sheer excitement of going out with the entire school, but there is definitely something in the air.  And forget to go trick-or-treating on Sunday.  We don’t think you’re ever too old to stuff your face with candy.

Letter to Readers

Letter to the readers, Not only is the season changing, there ís a new air on campus.  It’s not that fresh cool breeze that slips through your window screens at night either.  Students are a little rambunctious and more energetic than usual this week.  You might have even seen some…

Letter from the Editors

The first semester back at school is always hectic.  We are forced to recover from a long summer of sun-drenched skin, salty hair and the searing hot excitement for absolutely no schoolwork (not to mention one too many vodka seltzers).  Whether you’re a new incoming student or a veteran senior,…

September 22, 2010

Dear Readers, As our nation was in trouble due to an enormous oil spill that occurred last April, our campus newspaper was also knee deep in muck.  Through an abundance of obstacles and tremendous help (props to Professor Carolyn Levin) we have managed to reinvent this publication. This edition is…
