FAQs

How do I get involved with The Talisman?

Take Intro to Journalism or Sophomore Journalism as your English class – sooner in your high school education rather than later.  Then, you will become eligible to apply for the Talisman staff the following year.  Returning staff members are eligible for editor spots on the staff.

Sometimes, we take students who haven’t enrolled in a journalism class, as long as they are willing to learn journalistic style.  Contact us if you are interested.

 

I found an error – how do I tell you about it?

We try our best to verify content and produce work that is practically perfect in every way.  However, sometimes mistakes happen. The best way to tell us about any error is to contact us via email.  Send us an email at [email protected] and we will try to get it updated for you.

 

Does the print edition still exist?

Our last (for now) print edition was released on March 13, 2020 – right before the Covid-19 pandemic shutdowns happened. For the time being, we have decided to nix the print publication in order to make sure that we are utilizing our time and resources  in the best way possible. While it’s not out of the question that we return to print editions sometime in the future, that’s not currently in our plans.

 

I commented on a story but can’t see it. Why not? 

We love to hear what you think!  However, because we feel strongly that online comments can get out of hand really quickly (take a look at any viral X post to see what we mean), we screen all comments prior to allowing them to show.  As long as it’s clear that you aren’t a robot and you meet some minimum expectations for human decency, we will likely approve your comment and you’ll see it soon.

 

Who sees the content that you post on the website? 

Hopefully a lot of people. We get several thousand page hits each month, and as we continue to grow our social media presence, that number just continues to increase.  The primary audience for our website will always be the students at RB Hayes High School – after all, this is a student publication first and foremost.  However, we also get feedback from staff members in DCS, Delaware community members, Hayes alumni and even the occasional stranger who just stumbles across our site on the Internet.
