DJ Change

My friend Marcus has just informed me that he is unfortunately unable to DJ for our event, but he has a replacement DJ for us. His name is Ellis, and I am sure he will be good, since I think all his friends are DJ's and they have a lot of experience spinning. Thankfully, this wasn't too much of a disaster in replacing him :D

Ciao,

DJ "Mawkus" for Launch Party

Hey guys!

So I have confirmed that DJ "Mawkus" will be spinning for our Launch Party event coming up next Thursday at the Loft. I have heard his stuff before at a previous event with KSDT Radio, and he is really good! He doesn't really play much mainstream music, but he still plays very fun music, with cool beats and a great sound, so the event should be able to get everyone dancing! There is a possibility that another DJ will spin for the event also, but that is still pending.

I am really excited with how this event is coming along, and the decorations planned so far sound gorgeous, but I guess you guys will just have to wait to see how it will all turn out :D

That is all!

Welcome to the Blog!

Hello everyone!

For those of you who just happened to stumble across this blog, this is the Secret Scholar Staff Blog. There will be posts from the writers, PR, event coordinators, and editors, just to name a few, to give you a deeper look into the process of how an issue comes together.

I should probably backtrack and explain what, exactly, "Secret Scholar" is. Secret Scholar is University of California, San Diego's student fashion magazine, founded in 2007. We focus on articles that would interest the student population, with articles in our Winter 2009 issue ranging from cheap shopping hotspots in San Diego to great study tips. However, you might probably have known all of that already...

Currently, our Winter issue is being published. I'm very excited about how it turned out, and I can't wait to see the physical product when it's done. We are having a launch party where we will be releasing the issue next week, Thursday, March 12th at The Loft! Definitely swing by to pick up an issue and to hang out, we'll be having a DJ and a dance party at the same time.

As of right now, I guess that's all the news I've got. I'm a pretty regular blogger on my own personal account, so don't be surprised if there's a lot of posts here.

See you later,

Monique
Co-Editor
