COLUMBIA SCHOLASTIC PRESS ASSOCIATION THE MASS MEDIA HAS BEEN AWARDED THIS MEDALIST CERTIFICATE BY THE ASSOCIATION AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK MARCH 13, 1980 IN ITS FIFTY SIXTH ANNUAL CONTEST ...-„.- k THE The Mass Media is the weekly stu - dent newspaper of UMB. Those of us at the paper would like you to know a little bit about how the paper is pro- duced. When students pick up the paper on Tuesday it marks the end of a five-day production schedule that leaves many of us at our wits end. Our week starts on Tuesday when raw copy is submitted to the editors. The copy is edited by a department editor and then the copy editors. The copy is then sent to Point Press to be typeset. On Wednesday film is developed and the layout is started; Copy is still being submitted. On Thursday there is still more copy coming into the office, photo- graphs are printed and the layout is finished. Typeset copy is proofread and marked for corrections and then is is pasted -up. On Friday headlines and captions are written and editors check their sections for mistakes, inconsistencies and corrections. On Monday the final details such as logos, folios, and final corrections are put on the pages. The Editor-in- Chief is the last person to check the pages before the page negatives are shot and the halftones are stripped in. Minor errors, such as typos, must sometimes be allowed to pass be- cause of the time factor.
