2 votes for The Student Tribune then!  Any other informal votes?  I'm
partial to the Scholastic Sentinel, but that might just be because it
rhymes.

I talked to Barbara, and the deadlines she aims for with the bulletin are
December, April, and August.  We could do something like February, late may
or early June, late July or early August, and then November.
August will overlap with the bulletin, but that's okay since it's right
after convention time.

Now, the question is, would we want to shoot for February as our first
issue, or wait till May or June?  Christmas break would be a good time to
submit articles regardless, and this can be very free writing.
Write about what is currently going on in your life, stories about growing
up as a blind kid and learning lessons about blindness and life in general,
and news stories about different events we're involved in as a division.
Barbara said she will lift stories from our newsletter and print them in the
state bulletin, and she may also send a few that she thinks will be good for
the Monitor to Gary Wunder.  Debbie Kent Stein usually reads all things NFB
as well, so some things may also get into Future Reflections.
