Quite a team. The Snowden program is delighted to have two interns from @UPBeacon @UPortland this summer. Follow their reporting at @Briennaharo and @JaneaMelido.

Starting my first day at @thebulletin tomorrow! Since I’ve moved to Bend, fellow @UO_Snowden intern @JaneaMelido has been telling me all about her experience and I can’t wait to get started! This picture was taken at the #uo_snowden orientation, what a whirlwind of a day :))

I walk into work this morning and @Briennaharo’s byline is on the front page. This was the morning pick-me-up I needed.

Forgot to mention, @malika_andrews is a proud alum of working at @UPBeacon so really should not be surprised by her success. They all do great. – at Druid Hills, GA

Congratulations, @malika_andrews! Probably a little different than covering our @PortlandPilots games in the Chiles Center, right? Great job.

On this wildfire dashboard and map, you can learn about fires in your area and evacuation levels: In a green zone? Level 1 - Be ready. In a yellow zone? Level 2 - Be set. In a red zone? Level 3 – Go now! #oregonfires2020 bit.ly/oemfiremap

Great article by @Lindsay_Schnell & she’s right - if this brave student, Olivia Sanchez had not written about this incident, would we have ever known about it? Why is the onus for change always placed on students? usat.ly/2HbQ9pq via @usatoday

It's important to understand that sometimes athletics is not as glamorous as people think. I think @UPBeacon and @oliviarsanchez displayed that today and helped #portlandpilots understand where they can do better. nitter.cf/oliviarsanchez/status/…
