  • Write for the Honors College satirical newsletter: The Asterisk

    Aug 28, 2015 11:15 am42 views

    Are you passionate about the 2016 Presidential Election?  Do you have an interest in political satire?  Then check out the Asterisk.

    You are entering the total spin zone.  The Asterisk is the only satirical newsletter in the Honors College, and we are looking for writers, political cartoonists, and layout editors.  If you’ve ever watched political satire like the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon or the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, you might’ve wanted not just to be a watcher of but a watchman over politicians, just like them.  Here is your chance to do that, and, if there’s ever a time to do it, it’s in college. 

    The first edition will be released after the CNN Republican Primary Debate.  Please contact Polatip Subanajouy at psuban2@uic.edu to ask any questions or to apply.
