Seeking Bloggers for the RAPP Blog

As RAPP enters our third year with an active blog, I want to add a new element to what we post.

So far, the blog has been kept as one that intentionally limits its coverage to:

  • UC-related news stories
  • RAPP updates and calls for volunteers
  • Campus and community events, usually related to diversity, multiculturalism, and social justice
Links to our posts go up on Facebook and Twitter every time one goes live, which is where most of our traffic comes from.  We average between 40 and 80 visitors a day to the blog.

In the next few weeks I'd like to launch a new series on the blog with the current working title of "RAPP Reads" (suggestions for a better name are greatly appreciated!).

This series will involve RAPP community members blogging about articles and new stories they think could generate meaningful conversation about diversity, multicultural, and social justice topics.  

Being on the blogging team would involve learning how to use our blog then posting an article/story with discussion questions approximately bi-weekly.

If you are interested in being involved in this project, please contact Rebecca at 513.556.6115 or lehmanrl@uc.edu.
