CON EDITOR'S LETTER Hello students, Welcome back to campus, and welcome to our first issue of the semester! Although we have been experiencing a pandemic for some time now, this semester will once again be a semester unlike any other, as we transition into fully in-person classes while also keeping health guidelines in mind. I would like to announce that this semester will officially be my first as the new Editor-in-Chief! I have worked for the paper for a year now, and I am honored to have been chosen to head this amazing team. I hope to continue reporting on important social issues, campus news, and entertaining stories that appeal to the student body. I feel very strongly about connecting and communicating with others through writing, so I hope we can continue providing an outlet for students to do that. This semester we have also hired several new staff members, who have shown excitement and motivation to learn, even in an unpredictable and chaotic time. I thank them for their enthusiasm and hard work. I am so excited to see their innovative ideas as we continue the semester. As you finish the first couple weeks of classes, I encourage everyone to act safely and keep in mind the health of yourselves, your peers, and CSU’s faculty and staff. The Uproar will continue to keep health guidelines in mind as well, as we begin in-person meetings by encouraging the use of masks and social distancing whenever possible. We will also continue to report on issues concerning the interest of the student body and the Columbus community, keeping you updated on current issues. Now, it is back-to-school season, so this issue is aimed towards reintroducing students to the campus by speaking to students about their hopes and concerns for the semester, highlighting CSU organizations, and finding student-friendly places in Downtown Columbus. Although the ongoing pandemic continues to be a point of concern, I encourage students to have an enjoyable fall semester. After spending such a long time learning and communicating online, the thought of interacting face-face again may be daunting. However, as long as we remain safe and vigilant, I believe this semester will be fun as we connect with new people and learn new things. Thank you all for reading!
