About the Staff

The Conestogan Yearbook is staffed with a diverse group of motivated students. Members work on everything from design and layout of the book, to copy editing, picture selection, reporting and writing. Also, staff work together to create pages to coincide with the theme. They decide what goes into their section, and produce pages to reflect these decisions. Staff positions are always available for editors, writers, and photographers. An organizational meeting takes place each semester. In addition, we have a weekly board meeting to keep one another posted on current events and book deadlines. Our office is located on the second floor of the  Student Center.

Production of the Conestogan integrates journalism, photography, design, and business administration. Background in any of these fields is not necessary for involvement, as our staff attends workshops, learns from one another, and becomes more than proficient in their realm of production once brought into the organization.

The Editorial Board consists of the Editor(s)-in-Chief, Business/Marketing/Operations director, Section Editors, Writers and Assistants, a Copy Editor(s), as well as a Photography Editor and its select staff. The Editor(s)-in-Chief responsibilities include, but are not limited to the overall physical completion of the book with the highest degree of quality, as well as overseeing other employees and ensuring each individual's duty is carried out in full. Furthermore, this position leads recruitment opportunities. Inversely, the Business director controls the organization's financial status, marketing affairs, and oversees day-to-day operations. As well, the role is in charge of ordering, payments, public relations, and other external transactions.
