And that means a broad range of issues will cross your desk: admissions, financial aid, tuition pricing, and marketing. This section covers a lot more than 18-year-olds living on campus at elite private colleges. Increasingly, it's about the 1 out of 4 undergraduates who are older than 30, about the growing proportion of them at community colleges, and about the ones attending part-time. The reporters are following the Obama administration's ambitious college-completion goals, controversial student legal issues, and the changing strategies families use to pay for college. You don't have to be an expert on these issues — yet — but an interest in higher education and the ability to be a quick study are musts.<br /><br />Our Students editor supervises four reporters and an intern. We're looking for someone to plan coverage, shape story ideas, mentor younger reporters, and edit weekly copy for our print edition as well as daily stories for our Web site. You'll also have opportunities to write your own stories.<br /><br />The job requires outstanding organization and the ability to work well with others, especially our designers, Web producers, photo editors, and your fellow section editors. A minimum of 3 years of editing experience is required. Experience editing long-form stories is a plus. So is being comfortable with data and statistics.<br /><br />The Chronicle is independently owned and based in Washington, D.C. Our pay is commensurate with experience, and our benefits are among the best in the business. <br /><br />We're a serious news organization with more than 90 writers, editors, and correspondents around the world.
