Happy New Year, and welcome back to The Spin!

Allow me to introduce myself: I’m Julie Siegel, the editor of this noble blog for the semester. I’m excited to be back for a second dose of The Spin’s entertainment, excitement and top-notch writing.

Also returning are zany Stephen “Duct tape” Morse and former DP opiner-in-chief, Evan “you mean there’s life outside the office?” Goldin. Elizabeth “small town North Carolina” Song and Sharon “I heart Andrea Mitchell” Udasin have shed their old-school media shackles and will also be joining the blog squad. A fresh cast of cool characters including an English
exchange student and a fourth year Hill resident join these vets. Watch out blogosphere, here come Camille Hardiman, Dan Brickley, James Russell, John Kneeland, Josh Stanfield, Julie Steinberg, Ruben Brosbe, and Sarah Min.

Oh, and the blog belongs to you too! This semester we are encouraging our readers to move beyond the comments to guest blog posts. If you’d like to write a piece for the blog, please send me a paragraph pitch at siegel@dailypennsylvanian.com. Blog items are approximately 300 words.

Last semester, Eric Obenzinger took The Spin from a hokey pipe dream to one of the most widely read college blogs to date. We ridiculed, analyzed, mocked, and even scored a link from The New York Times. This semester, there’s no telling what mayhem may ensue. Brace yourself for some fast-paced, snarky, edgy reporting–The Spin has returned!
