What We Do
No matter what your interests are, there’s likely something at the Blue Flame that appeals to you: We report everything from local politics to varsity sports, from student plays to science news. You can write columns for our opinion page or prepare the literary magazine, our annual arts supplement. Thanks to our online set-up, we can now accommodate more long-form nonfiction that warrant greater depth and analysis.
More than just writing

The Blue Flame is currently in need of a design team that lays out the quarterly paper. As we enter the new normal, we are changing the way we read online. Other positions in high demand include photographers, videographers, and illustrators. A dedicated copy-editing staff is also important because they are responsible for proofreading every article before it goes to press.
