Mission Statement

T&CMedia is a student-run news organization serving the Otterbein University community. T&CMedia is not only an extra-curricular activity, but also a service to the college community in general and the student body in particular. All students are eligible to be involved in all aspects of production.

T&CMedia seeks to:

• provide accurate and reliable coverage of events and issues affecting the campus community

• educate the community about the role of a free press in providing information crucial for informed decision-making

• entertain and provide information about cultural events in the campus area

• represent and write for a vast cross-section of students, with a commitment to balanced coverage

• provide a training ground for students.

T&CMedia recognizes that it will not please everybody, but that it will attempt to be fair in its coverage. It will also seek to uphold legal and ethical standards, avoiding libel, personal attacks and actual or perceived conflicts of interest.

T&CMedia will strive to adhere to the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics.
