The Spectator has been established as a forum for student expression and as a voice in the free and open discussion of issues. The Spectator provides a full opportunity for students to inquire, question and exchange ideas. Content should reflect all areas of student interest, including topics about which there may be dissent or controversy.

MC Lars is the self-proclaimed creator of “post-punk laptop rap.” The Stanford graduate’s 2006 release, “The Graduate,” is perhaps the most prominent example of the nerdcore genre.
The term nerdcore was first used by MC Frontalot in his 2000 single “Nerdcore Hip-hop.” A primarily white subgenre of hip-hop, nerdcore focuses on pop culture and is self-produced by laptop-swinging, self-taught geeks. The genre often contains obscure references to science fiction television shows and computer programming languages.<img src="http://stuyspectator.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/issue-2-ae-cd-review.thumbnail.jpeg" alt="issue-2-ae-cd-review.jpeg" align="left" />

CHAPTER 1: THE PROMISE OF ONLINE JOURNALISM
Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one.
- A.J. Liebling
Thanks to the Internet, now you can. The sardonic quote from A.J. Liebling, the longtime press critic for The New Yorker and one of journalism's most gifted writers, takes on special relevance in this age of the World Wide Web. Liebling, writing in the years after World War II, was complaining that the cherished notion of a free press had become more myth than reality. Publishers and owners, Liebling groused, were not nearly as interested as they should be, and as Liebling was, in providing a forum for people to express themselves. Surely Liebling would have welcomed this world of do-it-yourself publishing. Now all it takes to be a publisher is knowledge.
Campus Weblines contains everything student newspaper staffs and advisers need to know as they start building online school newspapers for the world to see. The authors, with help from a talented crew of high school stud
