On Nov. 30, the Standard staff decided to take on a new form of media: Instagram.

One of the reasons in doing so was to connect students to Timberwolf activities and athletics, in a more timely manner, and on a more regular basis, as well as to go above and beyond the once a month paper issue.

Within the first few weeks, Timberwolf super fans began following the “@bvswnews” account, and “liking” the photos taken at games and assemblies.

Sophomore Madi Dombrowski is just one of the 78 Instagram followers of @bvswnews.

“I like being able to see photos from the games,” she said. “I think it’s really cool that our school has an Instagram account, because it’s an easy way to see what’s going on.”

The second reason the Standard staff decided to create and Instagram account, was to allow the students and faculty an opportunity to share photos of Timberwolves in action.

Students are encouraged to post fan photos from games and activities, and tag @bvswnews or use the “#bvswnews.”

In doing so, photos submitted can then have the opportunity to be included in the following issue as a “Fan Photo Favorite.”
