Hey guys! I’m Sam and I’m TCNJ’s Editor in Chief of The Odyssey. The Odyssey is an online social content platform that will provide you with differing perspectives of our generation, as told by other college students.
So why should YOU read the Odyssey?
1. The Odyssey is told from the point of view of other college students.
As college students, we are constantly reminded of the importance of keeping up to date with world. However, tuning into hours worth of world news or scrolling through NPR’s endless feed can be chalked up to less than a good time for most of us. That’s where The Odyssey will be your savior; scroll through The Odyssey’s timeline and you will find a variety of newsworthy articles all filtered through a college student’s eyes. The Odyssey will keep you informed while also keeping your interests peaked.
2. You will gain experience from other people.
By reading The Odyssey, you will be simultaneously gaining the knowledge and experiences of other people. What better way to learn than by learning from others? The Odyssey will tell the stories of the people we don’t know, the places we have yet to see, and the experiences we are waiting for.
3. You’ll realize that you are not alone.
Whatever you are feeling in this exact moment, I’m willing to bet that there is an article written by another college student who has felt the exact same way at some point. Feeling nostalgic? Feeling anxious? Scared for the future? Yup, we’ve got it all. You’re never alone!
4. You will actually know what’s going on around campus.
As a college student, it’s pretty easy to get wrapped up in your own world. (I’d say that I’m pretty damn notorious for this). The Odyssey will keep you in the know so that your clueless days will be a thing of the past. Wondering how many months you will be meal equiv-less for? Or why kids are running across campus with nerf guns and orange headbands? Read and you’ll know.
5. We want to hear from you!
We want your feedback! Read the Odyssey, comment on articles, share them with your friends. We want you to join the conversation!
