The Student Action News Team at Kennesaw State University
The Student Action News Team came into being in late 2009, at the Kennesaw State University. Four friends, Amie Flanagan, Cory McGinnis, Ryan Hughes, and Sophia Boswell formed a group in Prof. Jonathan Harris' Digital Media class, while in the process of making a News Package. The idea was to continue to make news packages, thus beginning to build resumes' and portfolio. The group produced it's very first 2.5 minute news package on Health Care, getting an "A" in the class.

In December 2009, the plan was placed into action, with meetings with the Communication Department Head, Dr. Wassmuth. Dr. Wassmuth then in turn pointed the group to Dr. Joshua Azriel who offered to help point them in the correct direction in order to become a Departmental Club while being as professional as possible in the product they produced.

In January of 2010, Karen Edwards joined the group, quickly establishing herself as part of the team, as well as Becky Hood and Billy Berger. They produced their first news package as a group on Feb. 11th. The group is rapidly establishing itself as "The Next Generation in News" with it's use of updates via New Media Outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube. They are also beginning to make their own websites with up to the minute updates regarding local news around Kennesaw, GA and the University. Their goal is to become the "Most Trusted Student News Source."
