Flashback Friday: This year, Jan. 16 marks the 110th year of publication for The Whitworthian! In 2005, during the newspapers centennial year, alumni reflected on their time as student editors. Nearine (Marcus) Baugh, ’48, wrote, “The most frustrating experience was to catch the Whitworth bus to town, the city bus to the print shop, walk four blocks (several weeks on crutches), do the proofreading, and paste the mock-up. Then came the reverse transportation hassle, and I would arrive back on campus after ‘lock-up.’ My housemother complained. The dean of women called me into her office, and I was told to make other arrangements or give up the paper. Thereafter, I either cut classes or hired a cab, but I didn’t give up the paper.”
