Special story nets 2,400 products;
Schneider focuses on service, people
      For Chelsea Schneider, scholastic journalism has been about touching people's lives. As editor of Warren Central's newspaper, the Owl, Schneider organized a "Domestic Abuse Rememberance Month." Schneider invited newspaper staffs from Lawrence North and Lawrence Central to join her own staff in the service project. The result was more than 2,400 products collected for abuse victims.
     "Their stories deserve to be told," Schneider said. "We can't merely sit in our staff rooms staring at our computer screens," she said. Schneider is Indiana's Student Journalist of the Year. She will study journalism at Franklin College in the fall.
