The Aviso AVW staff of this school year welcomes you! (Photo by Dr. Dixon.)

As you are starting to get back into the routine of waking up early for classes, as a staff, we would like to welcome you back for the 2012-13 school year.

We are very excited for the new year, and the changes that are coming to Aviso AVW.

Last year we added AVW to our name. AVW stands for Audio. Video. Web. We started adding more media aspects to our website, and this year we will be continuing to do so. However, we plan adding more media aspects into our publication this year by increasing our amount of video stories. We also have a contest in the works in which you, the readers, get to nominate, and vote for, the best dorm room on campus.

We already have our first issue in the works, and we are very excited to bring it to you. Make sure to check back on Tuesday, Sept 11 for our first issue of the year, as well as every Tuesday following. We hope to become part of your weekly routine, and wish you all the best of luck with the school year.
