Story 2 Ideas and Reflective Paragraph// Katie Dickens
1. New Golf House…rich tradition of golf at Wake, maybe visual b/c of existing images
2. TedX prep
3. Faculty Profile
Reflective Paragraph:
Writing this story was so, so much fun. I was extremely curious about the new football facilities after hearing about them from friends on the football team, and wanted to look inside. I figured that the rest of the study body probably felt the same way, so I contacted McKenzie Maddox and she said that the OGB would be interested if I submitted my work to them afterwards as well. I set up a phone interview with Coach Clawson through his assistant, and contacted Kendall Hinton through my friend Phil Haynes who is on the football team. Because both of them are extremely busy, I was sure to schedule a week in advance in order to talk to them. I also set up a behind-the-scenes tour with the Associate Athletic Director for Development, Barry Faircloth, who provided the backstory for the building and also allowed me to go inside to capture all of my images for the story.
Karlee Spirit edited my piece in class and provided key feedback based on my images and also pointed out that the field hockey team had not used the facilities yet, which I had previously thought to be true based on an interview.
