New addition to the staff
I'm late on this, but we brought John Vandiver aboard last week as a reporter in our High Point office. He did this story, which ran on the front page today.
John came to us from The Daily Times in Salisbury, Md., a 30,000-circulation paper where he covered county government, education and agriculture. That's all good and well but my favorite part of his past is that he taught English in Seoul for three years after he graduated from the University of Delaware.
He's primarily responsible for covering law enforcement in High Point. If you run into him -- assuming he's not meeting you as part of his beat -- welcome him.
