This 628-word editorial piece was originally published May 2012 in the Southwestern Sun, a student publication at Southwestern College in Chula Vista, CA.
Its purpose was to deliver the Southwestern Sun's collective stance against the possible privatization of its on-campus bookstore; its target audience included both students and staff on Southwestern campuses, as well as nearby communities, as the newspaper is distributed both on-site and off-campus at local businesses.
