I was looking over BYU Newsnet campus headlines today when I saw this one. The headline was: Opening Socials Welcome Students Back to Campus while the tag line was: To begin the year with a grand entrance, the four on-campus housing areas are holding their opening socials for residents.
The words that seemed a little odd to me are welcome back, and on-campus housing. This just seems a little odd to me because typically a large majority of those who live in on-campus housing are freshman, which means we wouldn’t be welcoming them back. Now granted, there are some students who are returning to campus who live in on-campus housing (many of whom live in Wyview which I argue isn’t really on-campus), but I’m just saying that the headline of the article could have been written to better fit the demographics.

Ok, I guess I’m pretty picky about some stuff. Is it too much to ask for journalists to write well?
