= THANKS GUYS ep By Garett Svensen, is] ° ° ° 5 Editor-in-Chief. ss And now it’s time to pass the baton. I’m moving on to newer things after the end of this semester, and want to have the Confluence continue on as the best student paper in Prince George. Hence the posting for an editor. Contributions are still welcome, but the paper will not continue if we can’t find anyone willing to do production. It’s your chance to make a mark on the world, get some creative freedom over an established small-press publication and do a bunch of really cool % things on the newpaper’s budget. a 7 It’s been a great ride and although I know I. it’s not quite over, I can see the terminal 2 station coming up on the tracks.
