The Editorial Board
The Editorial Board governs Shakerite opinion coverage, writes routine "Rite Idea" editorials, and serves as a guiding force for The Shakerite on controversial coverage. It was elected from and by The Shakerite Staff in September 2023 after speeches and voting. The 2023-24 Editorial Board comprises elected members Olivia Cavallo (Opinion Editor) and Declan Teeter (Design Editor) and appointed members Ingrid Holda (Opinion Editor), Ruben Rippner (Managing Editor) and Josh Levin (Editor in Chief). During their first meeting, the board reelected Josh Levin, a three-term board member, for his second term as chairman. With certain editorials, other staff or community members may participate in editorial meetings to provide information that may be useful. The Board's editorials, called "The 'Rite Idea," present the views of the editorial board; however, they may not reflect the opinions of The Shakerite's entire staff. The Editorial Board's Charter is accessible here for the public to view.
