I was taken to one of my friend's workplaces recently. A fellow Cardinalista, he was named the advisor to the student newspaper of Ball State University. Looking around this newsroom, it drove the point home as to what we are trying to do for The Daily Cardinal.

I had the fortune to attend our fifth annual Awards Dinner this past April. As always, it was a spectacular affair with more lighthearted moments than in past years.

For all of the kind words many of you have given us over the past five years, I cannot look on everything done to date and say we are done. I have not, and the DCAA has not, done everything we can for The Daily Cardinal, its staff and its alumni.
