Welcome!

Welcome to StudentsXpress: The Blog, a means to stay connected between issues of StudentsXpress. sXp is printed quarterly, with set topics. StudentsXpress: The Blog will be serve as another venue for students to write about those topics, but it will be much more. It will be a chance for students to write about what they choose. Because it is available instantly, it offers the opportunity for students to write about current events and other things going on around Chicago in a timely fashion.

Here are some ideas of things bloggers might want to contribute to this site:

• Reviews of movies, plays, museums, classes, restaurants, books, games, music, etc.

• Coverage of Chicago sports.

• Kid-friendly recipes

• Ideas about things to do over the weekend

• Short stories or poems

• Original artwork

These are just a few suggestions. Bloggers are welcome to submit anything that is of interest to them. Speaking of bloggers, that's exactly what I need. Anyone involved in sXp can participate—any age. 

If you have something you would like to share on StudentsXpress: The Blog, please contact me at rachel@studentsxpress.com. If you would like to be on a list of potential bloggers, please contact me as well and I will reach out when there is a story that needs covering.

This blog will be whatever the bloggers make it, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes....
