The Campus Newsroom

Aye! What’s up my name is Jasmin mostly known as Jazz. I’m a senior Communications major using my 5th year of eligibility to play lacrosse. This is my second semester being a part of ‘The Campus’ last year I found my place as social media manager where I introduced two weekly segments- “Today In The History Of Campus” and “Think-Off Thursdays”. I loved the relationships I built in newspaper class. I’m a reader and enjoy finding ways to express my creativity as well as being outside.

What’s up! I’m Chris Hanson, and this is my second year at Ottawa University. I major in communications in hopes to become a sports broadcaster on a huge scale.  Currently, I work as a broadcaster for KOFO Radio, and I broadcast for a several of Ottawa University’s sports teams. I’m from Ottawa Kansas, I’m a huge Chiefs fan, and the most important thing to me is my relationship with Christ.  I really enjoy disc golf, ministry, athletics and the Dark Knight Rises. If you see me around, be sure to say Hello! 

 Hi! I’m Skylar Alley, and I’m a sophomore. I enjoy writing editorials and getting my opinion out there. I like writing about the nuances in the entertainment industry, but also praising those that create something spectacular in film, tv shows, and video games. I've been doing journalism for four years, and have been writing for The Campus for two. Shameless plug: follow me on Instagram @FunSizedBug.

My name is Irvin Blanco, I am a transfer student from Seattle, Washington. This is be my second semester working for 'The Campus'. I am continuing my major in Communications and came to Kansas with the curiosity and plan to learn about new places and meet new people. During my free time, I enjoy listening to music and spending time with my family. I am a pitcher on the Ottawa baseball team. I hope to expand my knowledge academically, follow my passion, and continue to serve the community at Ottawa University.

Hey! I’m Emma Whelan, and I’m a freshman! I am from Tulsa, Oklahoma, and am on the women’s lacrosse team. Back at home, I was a part of my high school’s film program and, not to flex but, I have won $1,650 in film prizes ($250 honorable mention that I had to split with my partner, $750 3rd prize, and $750 3rd prize again). I am a Communications Major and am excited to be a part of the Newspaper and use my filmmaking skills to work in a new medium!

Hi! My name is Conor Browning, and I am the newest member of the Ottawa University newspaper. I graduated high school in 2019 at 4th in my class, but decided to take a break for the pandemic, so technically I am a 22 year old freshman. I grew up in Oklahoma City so Ottawa has been a bit of an adjustment for me to say the least. I am a content driven person, I love to create things. Mainly drawing but also through writing original stories or making Youtube videos and TikToks. Aside from newspapers, I am planning to join the speech and debate team this semester. I am excited for my time here at Ottawa University and working with everyone.
