FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

FOR THE RECORD: Vote and get your voice heard.

Okay, so if you've been paying attention to the media, you know that there has been a lot of coverage on the presidential candidates and the various primaries and caucuses that happened this past Tuesday.

Speaking of voting...you may recall Campus Philly's publication, The Notebook—you know, that 74-page booklet with the red cover with all the cool places in and around the city that we think you should check out?

Yes, that one. So here's the deal: we want to know your thoughts. We'll be introducing a Reader's Choice category for our upcoming summer edition of The Notebook. The categories include:

- Arts and Culture
- Entertainment
- Food
- Community
- Jersey Shore  
- Sports & Recreation
- Shopping

If you'd like to submit your entries, feel free to email me with the information and perhaps, even a sentence or two about why you love it so much. As much as I hate to admit it, I don't know every single cool place (please don't tell, okay? I have a rep to maintain).

Deadlines for the Reader's Choice categories will be Friday, February 29, 2008.

- Brittany Sturges, Temple '08
