Serving as a Citizen Member of the H-D Editorial Board

My six-month term as a citizen member of The Huntington Herald-Dispatch Editorial Board just ended. I was privileged and honored to serve with the members of the H-D board and with the other citizen members. We participated in weekly discussions of community and area issues, and the exercise was a great civics lesson.

I want to thank Jim Ross, the Editorial Page Editor; Ed Dawson, the Executive Editor; the board members and the other citizen members, who all made the experience a memorable one.
