Three of the students &#8212; Adrienne Cutway, Laura Newberry and Ashley Sikand \u2013 are UCF journalism majors. Sikand wrote the vignette at the top of this story.<\/p>\n<p>The students, aided by several advisers, spent the Labor Day weekend creating an entire issue of the newspaper from scratch. They spoke to residents of a Hollywood, Fla., homeless shelter about topics such as food, drugs, tattoos and love, and they turned what they learned into news articles. They also shot photos and designed the layout of the 20-page newspaper.<\/p>\n<p>In its third year, the program Will Write For Food places student journalists within homeless communities of South Florida as they produce \u201cHomeless Voice.\u201d \u00a0The program is run by the South Florida branch of the Society of Professional Journalists.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/spjwwff11\/docs\/issue\">here<\/a> to read the issue.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sara is 23 years old and seven months pregnant.
