Torch: U.S. LXVIII Winter 2018 | Page 7

Salvete, omnes! I've been working hard since national convention as your new 2018-2019 NJCL editor. In early August, I made the fall issue of Torch: U.S. with the help of Jade Woods and Mr. Ristroph. I also created a JCL editors groupchat and have been promoting the JCL Editors Facebook page. My hopes are that the Facebook page will eventually become an interactive community for editors to share their publications and give each other feedback instead of remaining a medium for my announcements.

I publicized the Local and State Publication contest on Instagram and Facebook and have been receiving submissions for those during the last couple of weeks. The website with more specific information regarding the publication contests are now available, thanks to Mr. McDonald!

It's been both a pleasure and honor thus far to work with such an amazing officer board. I also have the best mentor Mr. Ristroph who is always advising and supporting me in my editor duties! I hope you enjoy the winter issue of Torch: U.S.

E corde,

Anika Park
