Job Summary

The Editor-in-Chief (EIC) of the Michigan Times is responsible for the content and management of the Michigan Times. We are looking for an individual who understands the purpose of journalism in the community, who understands what it means to be a leader, and who will strive to create the best student newspaper possible. The Michigan Times needs a leader who is organized; possesses great communication skills; is self-disciplined; can cultivate a fun, welcoming, and hardworking culture among peers; and is excited to take control of the paper. While the M-Times has a two-adviser team to guide the EIC and staff, the publication's content, quality, and culture, are dependent upon the EIC
