missed it

we should have covered this first, and better then the statesman. ACC is our community, and they should get ACC news from us.

Yahoo! Sucks!

I know you miss us. You are all probably despondent, having not heard from your editors, and I'm sure you miss the hundreds of emails Matt used to send you. In your state of despair and confusion about the abandonment of your email accounts by The Accent I assumed you would all eventually check the blogs to see why we suddenly stopped writing.
Yahoo! Has blocked all mail from @austincc.edu addresses. So, we need an alt. email address to contact you. I'll work on sending out the really important group emails from my yahoo account.

We miss you too.

Sarah
The Accent.

2. a line or limit that must not be passed.
3. (formerly) a boundary around a military prison beyond which a prisoner could not venture without risk of being shot by the guards.

Deadline and SXSW

Follow theaccent on twitter

Some of us went to the Statesman today.

Some of us didn't. Alma.

Issue 2 deadline is in a few hours.

Sitting in the office, staring at my inbox, willing it to fill with emails is less effective than I had hoped.

Send in your stories and photos ASAP.

Now, for something we have been getting emails about,

The Final SXSW Accent reporters are...

Issue 2

We could use more content so feel free to sending in ideas if you have them. The first issue came in late today so pick it up on campus when you get the chance. If you have questions, sent in an idea you don’t see on the list, or want to volunteer to write one of the homeless stories email editor@Austincc.edu. Thanks to everyone that pitched a story, and to everyone who worked on the last issue.

This is why I watch the news.
