Why you should be a student newspaper editor.

From the Eyeopener:

PERKS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: weight gain; heightened stress level; intellectual snobbery; blindness and/or eye twitching; free Salad King on Mondays; telling off editor-in-chief; contempt for CP style; being better than the 'Sonian; being above a pub; sleepless nights; lower grades; poverty; body odour; never doing anything right; running after ambulances; free bad CDs; late essays; more than 150 spam emails a day; incomprehensible letters of vindication; falling asleep on your keyboard; $90/week; reading fine print; eating other people's food; racking your brain to come up with a half-decent cover; lots of laughs; lots of laughing at other editors' expense; lots of laughs at your expense. And more.

Hahaha, I was the A&E editor at The Cord last year, and I hear the free bad CDs thing. No one ever sends good CDs.

But 90$ a week? That's awesome. I get about $16 a week, in a lump sum at the end of the year.
