Freedom of the press inevitably entails a heavy burden of responsibility, and includes not only the right to print, but also the right not to print.
Our social policies are not a suicide pact. They are in place to help us write the encyclopedia. ... We need to take due process seriously, but we also need to remember: this is not a democracy, this is not an experiment in anarchy, it's a project to make the world a better place by giving away a free encyclopedia. - Jimbo Wales

Me
Name - Travis
Age - 24
Location - Fairbanks, Alaska.
Occupation - Full-time student at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, as I've left my media relations position with GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing, the 2007 Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series Daytona Prototype championship-winning team. I served in a slew of editorial positions with The Advocate at Contra Costa College, a National Newspaper Pacemaker Award-winning weekly newspaper, culminating in my being elected editor in chief during the 2006-07 academic year. My line of work formerly took me on frequent business travel on United Airlines, where I am a 100,000-Mile Flyer (1K) member, but as I'm heading to Fairbanks, I'm now an MVP Gold on Alaska Airlines. I began and ended my career in politics as communications director for California Generation Dean, part of Howard Dean's 2003-04 Presidential primary campaign. Yes, I was in Des Moines, Iowa during the 2004 Iowa caucuses, yes, I heard The Scream and yes, I still have my orange beanie. :sigh:
Education - Associate of Arts in journalism from Contra Costa College, San Pablo, Calif., 2007. Currently studying at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, majoring in journalism and northern studies.
Honors - 2007 Associated Collegiate Press Two-year College Reporter of the Year, second place - Diversity Story of the Year, third place, a bunch of other awards which would take up their own page to list.
Interests - Grand-Am, road racing, roads and highways, American politics, Team Fortress 2, travel, aviation, etc.
On July 1, 2005, I became the 500th administrator on en.wikipedia. Thanks to everyone who supported my candidacy!
I am a member of the OTRS team.

Bio
I'm just your ordinary average 24-year-old college student - struggling toward a bachelor's degree whilst engaged in mortal PR combat with a Grand-Am sports car racing team. Born in Berkeley, California in 1983, I tested out of high school and skipped directly to community college, where I've semi-stalled-out after being heavily engaged into Contra Costa College's nationally-honored student newspaper. In 2006, I was elected editor-in-chief of The Advocate for the 2006-07 school year.
Future projects
Create articles on the Rolex Sports Car Series, Daytona Prototypes and the teams that race the series.
