 * __Issue:__ Student Government provided funding to the //Yellowjacket Buzz// in November 2007 to help publish at least two papers ($500). As of February 2008, //The Buzz// still hadn't been published. In reaction, Shawn Patterson and Glenn Watson choose to write their own paper, known as //The Student Government Chronicles// to provide a "challenge" to the Journalism classes to publish. The 12 page pamphlet was approved by Mr. Freccia, Principal Bedford and Assistant Principal Jefferson and was distributed in the halls in early March.
 * __Result:__ Prickled by the Student Government paper, Journalism published three papers within the next three months - the second of which featured personal attacks against the authors, which led to a //The News Journal// article "[|Read all about it: Journalism gets going at Newark High]" (4/30/2008).
