This story was a little difficult for me. I always have trouble with the sound and working with the programs on the computer.
Relating to my beat, I chose to go to a Lounge. I reported on an event called the "Yo Bunny Happy Hour" that happens every Wednesday hosted by Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity. I interviewed the president of the fraternity here at Towson. He explained why they host the event.

About My Feature Story
How to story
How transfer students become socially involved
I interviewed two transfer students here at Towson and one expert. The transfer students explained their experience, discussing the hardships of being a transfer student and trying to become involved and what they did to actually get involved on campus.
The expert gave great ideas on how to get involved on campus.
For some transfer students it may be a piece of cake to get socially involved but thats not the case for every one. Therefore I reported on each of their information and explained how to get socially involved being new to campus.

Social Collaboration

The article Facebook Valuation Stood In Way Of Twitter Deal focuses on the idea of Facebook buying Twitter. The two companies both discussed the deal in the fall and they could not agree on a price or structure. The value would have to be paid in Facebook stock. With Facebook having two different values of worth, confusion set in.
Twitter was ready to make the deal, offering Facebook cash and stocks. Facebook was not ready financially, so the deal did not happen.
If these two companies would have joined forces it would have opened a door for various opportunities in the social network. Both comanies are already popular and it would be very interesting to see what the outcome would have been. The article could have added the affects the two companies would have had on society. I would have investigated a more in-depth reasoning as to why Facebook was not as eager as Twitter was to make the deal. The article could have included opinions of staff from both Facebook and Twitter. Also, voices of the people and how they felt about the whole situation.
