Student reporter Lara Donnelly, host of the monthly video series Raider Recon, takes us behind the scenes at Wright State’s largest Commencement ceremony ever. With plenty of Pomp and Circumstance, join Lara for journey through graduation day at the Wright State Nutter Center.
Interested student writers should also take note of the video’s final message: The host of the next Raider Recon could be you.
(Editor’s Note)
Many thanks to Lara for exceeding expectations as a student worker in the Office of Communications and Marketing.
As a writer/reporter, Lara showed there were no stories she couldn’t tell and no subjects too zany for her to tackle.
Lara pioneered the dynamic Raider Recon series and leaves very big shoes to fill, both with the video series and in her diligent effort to supply the Wright State Newsroom with thoughtful, well-written, student-focused stories.
Lara, you will be missed.
