At the American Word, we’re completely transforming the magazine from our logo and layout to new sections and an improved web presence.

One of our big projects this summer is redesigning our website — an effort that will be completed at some point in the fall. We have five new sections — Around DC, Lifestyle, On the Quad, Politics and Sports — and reorganized the structure of the magazine so we have plenty of opportunities (from writing to editing and helping produce videos) for AU students who would like to get involved.

We already have a great editing team assembled so far:

• Editor-in-Chief: Josh Paunil
• Around DC Editor: Katie Johnson
• Design Editor: Allie Powell
• Lifestyle Editor: Mercedes McKeel
• Managing Editor: Scott Weathers
• Marketing Director: Emily Good
• Photography Editor: Rachel Devor
• Politics Editor: Mike Cipriano
• Sports Editor: Michael Gardner
• Web Editor: Mary Hamula
• Video Editor: Sacha Ghalili
