NAT Sound VO-Herman	Main Street in Moscow has seen many changes over the years, and while some businesses can’t keep up with the changing times, there is one business in Moscow that has stood the test of time. Book People, is celebrating 40 years of being a part of the Moscow community. But 40 years for Book People didn’t come easy, the future of Book People was in jeopardy a few years back as the owner wanted to sell the store.
CU: Carol CG: Carol Spurling 00:25	Because for most of 2011 the previous owner, bob
NAT SOUND VO-Carol 00:31	Was planning on selling the store. And so there was almost a full period, a full year where people thought book people was going to close because no one was stepping forward to buy it.
NAT SOUND VO-Herman 00:42	That’s when Carol, her husband, and two other partners purchased the store and kept the legacy going and Book People a part of the community. Book People is one of the few independent book stores in the area, offering an alternative to the bigger book and media stores. But for many, the allure of the store is in it’s community presence.
CU: Monte Walker CG: Monte Walker 10:02	Well book people has been here for over 40 years and has always been a part of the community. I think it’s probably a gathering place for people downtown and one of the few business that’s been on main street for that many years.
CU: Joseph Roberts CG: Joseph Roberts 01:15	It has several events that involves the community like having local authors having their book signed and I think that brings the community together ways t hat only a bookstore can.
CU: John Crownin CG: John Crownin 01:28	I think that, independent bookstores are critical in a community.
NAT Sound VO-Herman 01:36	With the rising popularity in electronic books, Book People has had to adapt and embrace the change.
CU: Carol 01:51	There has been so many changes in the book industry. In a way, things are harder, and in a lot of ways things are easier. Technology has made my job simpler than It used to be, faster.
VO-Herman 01:57	Book People has been serving the Moscow community for 40 years, and Carol hopes for many more years of great books.
CU: Carol 02:03	Everyday I try to live up to those expectations and to keep the store a place that the community is really proud of and that feels like it belongs to the community.

Scotland Trip

TRT: 02:04

10-25-13

NAT SOUND: Birds chirping

ANCHOR: It’s a 8 a.m. While most students can be found sleeping, Senior Christina Bolt is hard at work for KWSU.

NAT SOUND: Keyboard and mouse clicks

With every keystroke and click of the mouse Bolt gets closer to completing her project, but her job is not the only thing on her mind.

Bolt enjoys reminiscing about the full semester she spent studying abroad in Scotland.

[Bolt Bites.m4a]

BOLT: “I miss it so much, it was a new experience everyday over there, different people everything was so different.”

ANCHOR: Although an enjoyable trip, her time was not all fun and games.

Bolt chose to study in Scotland to expand her knowledge on producing documentaries and was excited to get to work. Blot was in for a surprise when she arrived at the school as she discovered that the teaching style overseas is very different from Washing State University.

[Bolt Bites.m4a]

BOLT: “It’s really made me appreciate the way they teach things over here that I really enjoy learning this way and it does fit my learning style. And that people in other countries do have it harder than us the way they are taught, especially in the UK, this just works for me more.”

ANCHOR: Life in Scotland for Bolt was vastly different than it was in the US.

At times the transition was not easy as Bolt did not have access to a car.  

[Bolt Bites.m4a]

Nat Sound: Cart rolling + Checkout beep + buss rolling

BOLT: “Over there I had to go to the store and get groceries on a bus and then walk them from the bus, which was very far. And then up four flights of stairs, that kind of sucked.”

ANCHOR: Even though her friends knew she was having a great experience half a world away, as her friend Denise Gibbs points out, they still missed her back home.

GIBBS: It was crazy to think that Christina was on the other side of the world for 6 months and I just couldn’t talk to her whenever I wanted to like normal.

ANCHOR: And although Bolt loves Washington State University and living in Pullman, she will not hesitate to share her desire to return.

[Bolt Bites.m4a]

BOLT: “ Until you go there you don’t understand the people or anything. It’s defiantly easier for me to understand other people’s cultures now. From going over there and meeting them and seeing what it’s really like and not what a movie has showed me. You’re in a different country. It’s way more fun than you think it’s going to be, I would love to go back to Scotland.”

ANCHOR: In Pullman, I’m Herman Meier.

Denver Post Photo Choice

This photo would run at the end of the article, in large part as a reflective piece. It does show people's names but in no way does it put them on the spot. The focus is on the collective rather than an individual.  

This photo illustrates the grieving process and allows readers/viewers to identify with the people. It also shows how much it impacted people. 

The difference between this photo and the previous one is that this photo is a much more dramatic, to the minute photo. 

This photo shows the raw horror of what went on. Illustrates very well the scene for those who were not there, very important to the story. 

This photo shows just how impactful the entire event was and shows how many people were involved.

The story illustrates how tough it is to fight forest fires and also the devastation that it leaves behind as well as all the people it touches.

Revised Speech/Meeting Story

ASWSU Backs Res Life Appeals

New Resolution Gives Parapros Job Security

The Associated Students of Washington State University senate passed a resolution Wednesday night supporting an appeals process for termination of paraprofessionals.

The resolution, R43-02, was the primary focus of the senate meeting in Compton Union Building Room 204. Other topics included a senate seat election and an athletics complaint.

R43-02 calls for the Department of Residence Life to reevaluate firing procedures, specifically the termination clause, which has come under fire during the past year.  

Tristan Hanon, former ASWSU executive member and Stimson Hall sponsor, spoke in support of the resolution and to voice his concern about the current way paraprofessionals are treated.

“Being a Sponsor [or Resident Assistant] is an at-will job,” Hanon said. “At any time you can be fired and lose your home and food just for saying something that doesn’t agree with your boss.”

Hanon spoke with vigor and passion during his speech and stressed the importance of the resolution.

“This is an issue that needs to be addressed, and the time is now,” he said.

Jansen M. Vandermeulen, WSU sophomore, said he thinks Hanon’s words had a profound effect on the senate.

“The senators had seen this resolution, but to them it was just an abstract issue,” Vandermeulen said. “I think he made a big impact.”

The senate unanimously passed the resolution after approximately 15 minutes of deliberation. The resolution will be given to the Department of Residence Life to review.

WSU junior Mackenzie M. Weber said he believes the resolution is a step in the right direction.

“There is a lot that [the Department of] Residence Life isn't called out on. Res. Life has a lot of stuff that they need to be held accountable for,” he said. “Everything is behind closed doors.”

The first resolution passed pertained to a space for students who are military veterans. Resolution R43-02 is the second resolution of the year passed by the senate,

Other business in the senate seat representing The Edward R. Murrow College of Communication had been vacant since the beginning of the school year and needed to be filled.

Four candidates from the Murrow College applied for the vacant senate seat and appeared before the existing senate for appointment.

Each candidate gave a short speech and each existing senator had the opportunity to ask questions.

Candidates ranged from sophomore to senior and spanned all emphases’ within the Murrow College.

After a short deliberation, the senate appointed strategic communication major Regina Sologub, a junior, as the new senator.

An unidentified student also told the senate his concern over the plans for WSU athletics to distribute luchador masks to fans at the football game the night of Halloween.

The student said that athletics was mocking a well-established cultural symbol of the Latino community.

The student asked the ASWSU senate for immediate action. No legislation was proposed at the meeting.

The ASWSU senate meets every Wednesday at 5:30 p.m. in CUB 204.
