On November 28, 2016, an OSU student who was a Somali refugee ran his car into a crowd outside an engineering building and jumped out wielding a knife to try to hurt more people. Although several people were injured, only the attacker died in the incident, which became breaking news around the country and a political flash point only a few weeks after the 2016 election. OSU’s student newspaper – The Lantern – played a central role in providing national news organizations with updates on the situation. We rebroadcast an episode of The Student Slant podcast (https://studentslant.podbean.com/) from OSU’s school of journalism where students talk about covering the event and being in the newsroom that day. STEAM factory intern Jake Rahe, who is also a commentator on the Student Slant, helps to introduce the segment.
