Each Thursday, WKU’s Student Chapter of NPPA brings you some of the best images of the past week taken by our very own classmates. To submit for our weekly posts, you must currently be a WKU Photojournalism student and have taken the images or produced the video within the last week (Tuesday to Tuesday). Send your top 1-3 selections to wkunppa@gmail.com by our Tuesday 6:30pm deadline and our officers and attendees will pick the best of the bunch to showcase at our open meetings every Tuesday at 7:00pm in Lab 118.

Community members move closer to the fire as the Flint fire department contains a large blaze on Tuesday, April 14, 2015 at Averill Recycling in Flint. The fire started at about 5:45 p.m., and continued to burn more than five hours later, as crews could not get close enough to the flames because of debris and junk. Flint Fire Chief David Cox Jr. said crews created a fire stop, which will hold the fire from spreading, and will allow it to burn itself out. BRITTANY GREESON
