The newspaper staff is composed of 12 departments, six writing and six non-writing. Each member of the newspaper staff, consisting of over 250 students, works for one or two of the 12 departments. The writing departments include News, Features, Opinions & Editorials, Arts & Entertainment, Sports and Web Content. The non-writing departments include Photography, Art, Layout, Copy, Business and Web Development. Editors are considered staff members of every department.
