Do I have to haul this out again?

I was in charge of the “mini-mag” for the yearbook my junior and senior years of high school. This was in the era of desktop publishing where we had the digital layout but not the digital photos. (We still had a darkroom.) In this case, the top two photos were of collected newspapers showing developments over the fall of 1998.

Given current events, I thought I’d dig it up — mostly to prove I could (What, you don’t have computer files from high school?), but also to wonder if this would make me, extremely technically, one of the youngest people “in journalism” around for the impeachment of two presidents.

[With a slight error in the body text, as the vote was December 19, and the headline the 20th. Editors need editors too.]

After I graduated, a prepackaged professional version of the “mini-mag” was substituted — and now much more of the yearbook is in color. Whatever North Tama students get next May will look much more slick than this, but possibly with the same headline.
