TAPInto Greater Olean is a hyper-local online newspaper and a franchise within the TAPInto chain. The only affiliate staffed by college students, this outlet, under the direction of Dr. Richard and Prof. Anne Lee, gives students an opportunity to write for a nationally featured, professional news outlet cited by the Columbia Journalism Review.

As a student-reporter, I have had the opportunity to cover athletic events, political events, and submit opinion columns.
