NY Times Project
My group, Just Do It, chose sports as our newspaper’s theme. We felt that sports was an important topic to address because everyone is either a sports fan or enjoys playing a sport. Sports teaches us valuable lessons whether it be working together as a team, or individual lessons like pushing yourself to do your best. Sports are also a way of promoting a healthy lifestyle. As busy college students it is often diffucult to stay in shape with the lack of time and the availability of quick yet unhealthy meals. Sports are a fun and enjoyable alternative for someone who dreads going to the gym. It is also important to note that reading about sports news offers fans a new perspective to a sport they love or one they are interested in.
