I have too many memories to recall from my time at the State Press. But one that stands out is the day that ASU hired Bruce Itule as the Manager of Student Publications.
The previous year there was a lot of tension between the previous manager and the student staff. He was a good man, but there was just bad chemistry.
Bruce was the perfect pick, which was why I pleaded with the university task force to recommend hiring him, because of his solid newspaper credentials, even though they wanted someone with more university experience.
Fortunately they made the right choice, hired the right man, and we all benefited, especially our student journalists.
