Hi! My name is Sam Bode and I’m a junior. This is my second year on staff, and I’m currently a commentary editor! This year, I’m excited to meet new people and create amazing content with everyone! Things I do outside of the Dispatch are managing the Bowie Swim and Dive Team and being a part of Class Officers 2026. I also love to go to concerts and explore Austin with my friends. I’m really excited to see what this team achieves this year!

The new ID policy is important
