Writers Needed!
For all African American students, who are interested in writing a one time guest column for Las Vegas Black Image Magazine, entries are needed for African American students.
Anyone who is interested in writing a column should send 300 to 500 word essay explaining why they should be the writer and what they hope to learn from this experience.
The final project will have nine students who would participate in the writers program from October to June will be given a deadline when they choose to join. Each writer will be writing about someone at their school who they admire and respect.

Students or teachers interested, contact Penny Ramos-Bennett in the Communications Office at 799-5304.
Originally born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Dyuce at the age of four, moved to Las Vegas. At the age of seven, he moved to Portland, Oregon where he would spend the next ten years of his life. During his high school years, Dyuce spent the majority of them at Tigard High School in Oregon. However he started his freshman year at Madison High School in Portland, Oregon, only being there in the first semester.
During his freshman and sophomore years, he played football for both high schools. He loves football with his favorite sports team being the Philadelphia Eagles and college team the Oregon Ducks. It was Penn State, but with the negative reports, that changed this summer.
After high school plans, Dyuce wants to go to either University of Oregon with a journalism major and political science minor.
