I am just completing my fifth semester in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.butler.edu\/ccom\/\">College of Communication<\/a>. I have greatly enjoyed my time at Butler and anticipate graduating in 2014.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Activities<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">I am not really a member of any non-work organizations on campus. One class that acts more like an on-campus organization than a class, in my opinion, is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.butler.edu\/ccom\/student-media\/beat-blitz\/\">Bulldog Blitz<\/a>. The Blitz is a weekly show produced by Butler students with the assistance of two faculty members. The show covers Butler sports and often has guests in the form of Butler athletes and coaches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Work<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">I have worked for the school&#8217;s student newspaper, <a href=\"http:\/\/thebutlercollegian.com\/\">The Butler Collegian<\/a>, for all five of my semesters on campus. I am currently the managing editor of the newspaper. I have also worked as an intern at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nfhs.org\/\">National Federation of State High School Associations<\/a>. I was a publications intern and wrote stories for the organization&#8217;s monthly magazine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/cme106\/about-the-author\/collegian\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-165\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-165\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/cme106\/files\/2012\/12\/Collegian-167x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"167\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/cme106\/files\/2012\/12\/Collegian-167x300.jpg 167w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/cme106\/files\/2012\/12\/Collegian.jpg 391w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 167px) 100vw, 167px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brief Biography My name is Colin Likas and I&#8217;m a junior journalism major at Butler University in Indianapolis.
