(Photo by Don Shrubshell) This is the first issue of Pulse, a q uarterly magazine produced by the school publications class. It is the intent of the staff that the content reflect the lifeblood of the campus and that the magazine be an accurate reflectionof Cowley ' s heart beat. Why a magazine? Why not a yearbook? The decision to print a magazine instead of a yearbook was made, in part, to better serve the needs of the readers. Although the yearbook was an award-winning publication- the 1984 volume was rated an All- American by the Associated Collegiate Press-only about 270 copies were ordered last year by the more than 1200 students who attended Cowley. One of my biggest concerns was the amount of faculty and student staff time and talent that went into this well done publication, that had such a limited readership, Dr. Gwen Nelson, College president said. Another consideration in deciding on a magazine is the experience given to journalism students. The student staff producing the magazine will get a more realistic work experience, Linda Puntney, adviser, said. Not many students leave Cowley and go to work putting together a yearbook. The magazine will be distributed free to students and will be mailed to about 750 alumni and friends of the College. This first issue is a launching pad for the publication and includes a smattering of campus events so far this year. The March issue will feature student portraits, winter sports as well as student activities and the May issue will highlight graduation, organizations and an overview of the year. So, here is Pulse. We ' d like to know what you think of it because your A feedback will help determine iuture content and success.
