Hey, I’m Andrew, this is my second year on the Roadrunner newspaper production team, this is my first semester as Editor-in-Chief of the newspaper, I love how diverse and passionate, and dedicated the team is and excited to give the news to the Butte College students and the community at large. thanks for coming by and giving your time to read not just my work but the teams work.

As a student learning the craft of Journalism, we can’t get away from the use of Artificial Intelligence even with most phones and computers even come with them installed so I use Grammarly and other than that I just use it to experiment with but not for the use to write the story.

The three-story brick structure is built in an informally romantic version of the Italianate style. Now a museum and State Historic Park, it is California Historical Landmark #329 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
