The Newsroom Intern
I'm a journalism student at Indiana University. Right now I am an intern for The Herald Times in Bloomington, Ind.
This blog's aim is to chronicle my happenings, share what I write and my thoughts.

That’s right, Crean is tweeting away. The coach has tripled me in tweets and I’ve been on twitter longer.
His insights range from opinions on NBA games, random enthusiasm about Indiana and his program, to breaking down how well his staff played in a 4-on-4 charity event.
It’s interesting stuff, so check it out.

I’ve had a few people ask about the Assembly Hall rendering. So here it is.
» Robert Zemeckis buzzing about second 'Roger Rabbit' movie.
(via mattmattucci) One of my favorites growing up. My mom always said it was because I liked Roger. He was cool, but Jessica was hot.
Here’s what the aforementioned Recruiting Scoop might look like.
Start me up
“I’ve been running hot; You got me ticking gonna blow my top; If you start me up, If you start me up I’ll never stop.”
It’s that time of year.
The time where I half-assedly document my summer interning at a newspaper.
These next 16 weeks or so will be spent not under the parents’ roof in Joliet, Ill., but rather under my landlord’s in Bloomington, Ind.
I’ll be working at the sports desk for The Herald Times here in B-Town. Primarily, I’ll be covering Indiana University’s basketball recruiting efforts.
First on my to-do list: create a massive addition to the HTO Web site for all of your – if you care – IU recruiting news.
I’m going to make it out of Illustrator, Photoshop and Flash. I have been working with the programs basically since I abandoned Tumblr in the fall.
So far it’s looking pretty sweet – if I do say so myself. I rendered the outside of (The) Assembly Hall where the storied Hoosiers hoop. It’s at the top of the document with a red background that bleeds down to gray and then white. Then I made, what I call, a ‘hub’ where all of the profiles, stories and videos will go that my videographer roommate and I produce this summer.
Anywho, I hope to post quite a bit here. I’m thinking every story, video and such that comes out of my beat this summer, but also the random thoughts and stories I feel y’all should know about.
Take it easy for now. And hey, follow me on Twitter.
The intern,
Ryan
