- Stories that are unique/human interest. These stories exemplify the unique or human face of WSSU faculty, students or staff.
- Compelling stories with news/feature undertones. These stories most often appeal to a general audience and involve the activities of a person. They often have a direct correlation to an issue in the news or a national/local trend. Story ideas can be compelling, whimsical or present an issue that is on the brink of innovation.
