@bluskyrevisit and I interviewed students at Thompson Library today for our final project video! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

I am getting started on my final project for our news class! I get to look into landlord problems students have off-campus. Looking forward to what I can learn! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

I cannot believe we are already getting started on our final projects! It is easy to make a topic too broad and I have learned that it is better not to think too much when brainstorming. #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

I got to learn all about the things that can go wrong when filming video today. It is important to test your technology before you use it as well as be aware of the circumstances surrounding the area you are filming #osunewsclass

It was fascinating to learn about the experience OSU students have had in dorms this year. At the same time it is pretty stressful to put a story together in one day! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

Covering a breaking news story is very stressful! It feels like I had to have my story and pictures submitted as soon as I got the information I needed. It was still fun to run through the scenario and test my writing skills! #osunewsclass

As midterm season hits, Ohio State students take advantage of the warm weather to play soccer #osunewsclass

I had the opportunity to see what it is like to cover a professional hockey team last night. Thank you @Nicole_Kraft for allowing me to join you! #osunewsclass

Got to learn about how we construct a feature article in class today. That includes the lede, nut graph and the theme graph! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

Got my first feature story idea approved today! I am truly excited to talk with students about their experience in the dining courts! #osunewsclass

Members of Stand for the Silent are interacting with students on High Street, hoping to raise awareness for bullying. #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

There is an anti-bullying booth fighting for suicide prevention on 16th avenue and High Street. #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

We learned about Adobe Express in class today. My head is still spinning, but it is amazing the things we can create with technology today in an instant! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

Got some great advice about my first potential story from my fellow classmates. Can't wait finish it up! #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

I learned about what a class at @TheLantern would look like today! It was cool to gain knowledge about how the different beats are divided, what the schedule would look like, and what kinds of deadlines writers face. #osunewsclass

[Nicholas Shank @nick_shank1]

I got some great advice from @brimackay15 about trusting yourself as a writer and reaching out to sources for help. Thanks for speaking to our class! #osunewsclass

Was very interested in Ohio State coming out of high school. Will be interesting to see if the Buckeyes get back in this one.
