The Odyssey is flipping local news upside down with a new approach that combines the power of locally developed content and national reach. By capturing real conversations here in College Station, it seeks to impact conversations locally, nationally and around the globe. How cool is that?!

With the new development of Kyle Field stadium, and record enrollment year, 2014 has brought monumental changes in the history of Texas A&M. My vision is for The Odyssey is to be a source you can read about how these changes are affecting us as students, as well as other news circulating the community. Our staff are students just like you, we promise not to write about topics that don't interest you. 

From tips how to shop in a small town, to college cooking tips, advice, insight to Greek life and stories that will entertain and uplift, The Odyssey will both inform and entertain. Our content is relevant to you- the leaders, frat snapping, Texas flag clothed, food junkies, monogrammed, oversized t-shirt wearing, philanthropic members of Greek life.  

Each week, expect to see a new article with topics that you actually want to read. We desire to bring you fascinating articles that highlight the student body, give insights to Greek life, go behind the scenes in sports, provide helpful tips and articles that purely entertain. Once you've read an article you love, make sure to share it on Facebook, Twitter, and even email it to your mom if you're feeling it. Our goal is to gain a large enough audience to move our magazine into a weekly print edition. 

We're joining something huge that has already been a part of over 60 campuses across the nation. We want you, our audience, to be the heartbeat behind our writing. If you have a news worthy story, contact any of the writers on staff to share whats happening here in Aggieland.
