From the Editor, Celebrating 50 years of greatness, it is my pleasure to present to you the Pace Chronicle for the 2012-2014 academic years. Here at the Pace Chronicle, it is our job and duty to deliver news about what matters to the Pace Pleasantville campus. However, we are not only just a campus paper, but are a network of students of different backgrounds who come together to deliver stories that matter. As the year progresses, we hope you enjoy and are informed through our published work, whether it be through print or online media. I envision the Pace Chronicle as having a larger campus presence, so mark my words, by the end of this academic year, students and faculty will be anticipating each issue and papers will disappear from the stands as excited hands rush to grab an issue. By providing weekly papers, we will be chronicling the entire year capturing the Pace college experience within twelve sheets. The issues will serve as memoirs of the past, whether it is complaints about food from the café or heart-touching stories of students coming together to work towards a greater purpose. They will also serve as a glimpse into the future, with an insider’s look into upcoming events and projects at the Pace campus. These papers tell stories, not stories of our own, but stories of you-- of the Pace community. That is why we will strive to deliver the best news we can, because this isn’t just a paper, it is our story, it is Pace’s story. So expect great things this year. With 50 years to celebrate, there will be much to cover, so be sure to pick up an issue of the Pace Chronicle when it comes out every Wednesday. -Jonathan Alvaraz
