Thanks and farewell to Kelley Hungerford!

Kelley Hungerford, our associate editor, wraps up her summer internship at Prichard Communications. Kelley has done a wonderful job for us writing the "Mac's List" every week. She also created our first annual reader's survey, planned our forthcoming transition to a Web-based site and set up and promoted new social media platforms. Under Kelley's leadership, our circulation rose to 5,143 readers, a 14% increase in just 10 weeks. We'll miss Kelley and wish her every success in her senior year at Linfield College, where she will serve as editor-in-chief of The Linfield Review. As she has certainly made an impression on us, we encourage you to follow Kelley through her work at the Review, where her superior leadership will certainly make its mark on the world!
