Breaking News: Forge newsroom vandalized

On the morning of February 1, room 72 at Santa Barbara High School, where The Forge produces its editions, was robbed of five computers, one scanner, one printer, and a personal Nikon D40 camera. CSI investigators were on campus Friday morning also to look into another robbery on campus. Earlier in the week three computers were stolen out of the yearbook's office, located in room 71, adjacent to The Forge.

The Forge's planned issue will be published as scheduled on February 8 along with the King of Hearts center spread. Look for more details on this website.
