In the active voice the sentence would be as follows: The reporter interviewed the student.
Explanation:
The original sentence is in the passive voice. This means that the words in the original sentence have been reordered for the subject to be no longer active, but being acted upon by the verb or passive. In order to create a passive construction, the active sentence's direct object is moved to the subject position, and the active sentence's subject is recovered with a by-phrase. Therefore, to create an active sentence this should be done the other way around. The NP "the reporter" should occupy the subject slot, and the NP "the student" the one of the direct object. In this way, the subject acts upon the verb, becoming an active construction.
