This week’s issue highlights mainly what is happening now and in the future for the campus of West Texas A&M University. New changes will arise in the upcoming months to better the campus and to provide new places for the WT students (that’s you). With all these changes happening, WT will look like a brand new University.
Not only are there changes at WT, but also in the neighboring city, Amarillo.
Amarillo has become nationally recognized as a MMA leader. When …

This issue is a little different because we made one side for the guys and one for the girls.We know that guys don’t like to talk about Valentine’s Day, and we know that girls don’t like to talk about football.
So, we made you both happy and gave you 2 in 1!
We hope you all enjoy this special issue, and continue to read the Prairie!

Well, the break was nice, but it’s back to work for us here at the Prairie for yet another semester.
Just like changes were made last semester, we made more for the Spring. We aren’t making drastic changes like formats again, but the publications will be less. We are changing to a bi-weekly magazine instead of every week publications. We want to provide you with more in-depth stories and more overall content.
The magazine will be longer and more detailed. We …

This week, our staff wanted to feature something off campus. Not many individuals get the chance to see mass quantities of hot air balloons everyday, or even in a lifetime. Amarillo Balloon Association has done a great job in this area to bring one of the biggest rallies right here in the Panhandle. Otherwise, you would have to go to Albequerque, N.M. to enjoy this rare occassion.
Also, this week we wanted to show a new pizzeria in Amarillo that …

This week was interesting as we did something we haven’t done before. We highlighted a sports “story” for the main topic of this week’s issue. We wanted to do a cover story over Natalie Johnson, who is a Senior volleyball player here at WTAMU. We wanted the front cover to have more of a Sports Illustrated look for this issue.
Also, we wanted to cover a great organization that does many community service projects around campus and Canyon.
S.A.G.E does a …

This week’s issue is a conglomeration of topics. There is something for everyone.
We wanted to highlight the play Fiddler on the Roof presented by our own WT students. As the first play this season, it has been a great success with many nights sold out! Also, we wanted to highlight some departments that aren’t usually recognized for their efforts and hard work.
The Nursing Department dedicates numerous hours on and off campus. These students are some of the most dedicated …
