Hi there! My name is Amy Myers and I’m a junior from Central Illinois studying Cinema. I was first pulled into alt.news my freshman year by an enthusiastic and talented group of students who showed me just how much you can actually learn by getting involved. It wasn’t long before I was getting my hands on equipment, learning to edit, and even producing segments on my own. I’ve gotten to travel all over the country because of alt.news and have even gone as far New York City and Los Angeles. alt.news has been a defining factor in my education at Southern Illinois University and has also given me a family here that I’ll never be able to replace. I’ve produced such segments as Those Darlins, Christmas Town, and Museum of Bad Art. I would encourage students, of any major, to get involved with alt.news because there is certainly something for everyone here.
