Good morning, and farewell from your Calgary Journal 2026 winter editorial team<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As our team works away editing and publishing a range of upcoming student stories, many of us are also soaking up the final weeks of academic life before heading out into the\u2026<\/p>\n

\u00a0*dun dun duhhhhhhhhhh*<\/p>\n

\u00a0real world.\u00a0<\/p>\n

*gasp, shiver, thinking to yourself \u201coh no, but I am just a wee lass, how will I ever make it\u201d in a slightly Scottish accent*<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While the future remains unknown, what we can say for certain is how grateful we are for this opportunity to pop up in your inbox each week to share a piece of our team with you.\u00a0<\/p>\n

None of this would be possible without the help and support of several dedicated journalists and communication professionals, such as our managing editors, Brooks and Robson, whom we call our professors, and now our friends.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On a final note, we want to thank all our readers, peers, and contributors. We truly hope you have enjoyed our run as newsletter editors, as it has been a joy for us.\u00a0A new editorial crew will be back in the fall \u2014 and the Calgary Journal will continue to publish great local and national stories all summer long! <\/p>\n

Cheers,<\/p>\n

Emma & Daria <\/p>\n

P.S. to future editors: Brooks\u2019 favourite gum flavour is blueberry.<\/p>\n
