Yearbook printing delayed
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “student council”.
Summary
- The Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reports on delays to the Hullabaloo and changes aimed at its production and distribution.
- The paper reported that the 2001–2002 yearbook was completed in September and remained at the publisher; the 2002–2003 book was expected in early November, with about 330 orders.
- The article says Smedick attributed the delay to the editor’s illness, resignation and missed deadlines, after which he took over the project.
- The reporter writes that four students were hired in June through SAC job advertisements to assemble the book, with some salaries funded by the dean’s office.
- The article adds that Smedick said Student Council, the senior class and administrators would take larger roles, and that senior class officers had helped design the new cover.
- According to the article, Jostens representative Chuck Sabio said delays were common among college yearbooks, while Elise Lanio was set to lead a five-to-10-student core staff and collect material from campus groups.
