From the Editor
It’s spring semester and I,
like many of you, have found a
particular partiality for spring
semester. While I love the
warm weather and many parties
spring semester will bring, my
love with with this semester
stems from it’s beginnings in
January. Every January is a
time for new beginnings. A
new year, a new attitude and
another twelve months by
which you have a way to define
yourself, your goals, your tal
ents, and your accomplish
ments. At the Spotlight we love
January. We leave the past
behind us and know that we are
still constantly growing and
evolving. We get to take on a
whole new year of struggles,
triumphs, news and events.
Recently while cleaning the
office, we came archives of
Spelman Spotlight’s from the
1960s. The tagline read, “The
Voice of African-American
Womanhood.”
In 2004, we have again
adopted that tag line, honoring
our past Spelman women, and
moving forward as your voice
of black women, not only at
Spelman, but around the coun
try.
A newspaper has a purpose.
Our purpose now plainly stated
is to be your voice, your venue
of information, opinion, and
perspective. We hope you are
off to a great semester. We
look forward to dialoguing with
you.
Sincerely.
Leigh Davenport
