Jeff Thomas, Editor-in-Chief
Jeff Thomas is Editor-in-Chief of The Oakland Post. A senior with a major in Creative Writing and double minors in Journalism and English, he is a firm believer in the power of the written word. His goal with the Post is to produce stories that are meaningful to the campus community and to help other people elevate their writing skills in whatever way he can.
Growing up during the tumultuous Bush administration, Thomas has been concerned with the news for as long as he can remember. He views journalism as a moral trade, one that should be grounded in a devotion to helping other people.
Thomas’ interests outside of journalism include music, creative writing, reading, spending time with his family, and watching chiropractic YouTube videos. He hopes to work full-time as a writer and to one day acquire enough money to pay one of those YouTube chiropractors to work over his mangled spine.
