Reporter

Dan Waldman is a student reporter for the Medill News Service.

After spending most of my time trying to stick it to the man in high school through reporting for my newspaper, I went on to Northwestern University where I am currently a sophomore.I spend most of my time in The Daily Northwestern's newsroom, where I have previously served as assistant sports editor and covered campus news. I am also working as a business reporter for the Medill News Service, headquartered in Washington, D.C., covering the presidential election.I also dabble in entrepreneurship at Northwestern, and co-founded the largest student-run, philanthropic basketball tournament on campus. I am pursuing a double major in journalism and economics, and hoping not to disappoint my parents and justify my tuition.
