A taste of success

Success is measured in so many ways. Perhaps too many ways as every little hurdle we overcome becomes a monumental achievement in everyday life. It's what we need to keep going day to day. It becomes addictive.

Yesterday was the Mock & Roll event at the Students Union. Looprevil's third event of this academic year. And by far our most successful. Yesterday was proof that our newspaper is working, that it's building up a solid reputation. Just one and a half years ago The Looprevil Press was nothing more than an abstract concept. Now we have a dynamic website. Now we have a quarterly print edition. Now we host strong events showcasing student talent. Now we have a team of more than forty people proud to be part of this. And now we're venturing into radio with the introduction of Looprevil Radio to the LSU. Yesterday felt like what a students' union should feel like.

Just one and a half years ago our union or university didn't have any student media. Now, most importantly, we've set up the city of Looprevil where students can showcase their skills. Hopefully Looprevil will grow into one of the strongest student mediums in the country within the next five or ten years. Hopefully Looprevil will teach students skills that they need in the dreaded world of work.

So has Looprevil been successful? I'll leave that for you to answer.
