News article ideas

Idea #1
I would like to talk about the main 'hot spots' in Pullman during the summer time. Two popular spots to hang out at are the Dunes and the Cliffs. I have never stayed in Pullman during the summer, but I have heard about accidents taking place either at these places or commuting to them. I want to finds facts and inform ways for students and other young adults to remain safe.
I think that past accidents will allow me to teach readers on what to look out for and be aware of.

Idea #2
I would like to interview peoples reactions and personal stories about the impact that increased tuition rates would play on their education. I want to know if this summer session has less enrolled students than in years past. I feel that summer enrollment may have dropped in order for people to adequetly save for future semesters. I also want to discuss certain expenses that could be cut out of WSU's budget.

Idea #3
I would like to research safety ideas for students staying during the summer time. Is there more burglary during the summer due to the lack of people in town? I would discuss ways to be extra careful and how to protect yourself when less people are around to both protect you or witness a crime. I would also talk to the Pullman police and see if types of crime change during the summer vs. fall and winter semesters.
