As a student at Eckerd College I am privy to a different side of the world where we laugh at the word "diversity" because we represent every kind of person there is. I love the school, my professors and the atmosphere. I'm a communications major, hoping to break into the world of journalism after I graduate in May 2010. I'm really into music; my boyfriend is the guitarist and vocalist in the band Dreadful Memories (support LOCAL!) and we both indulge in our fair share of alternative rock, indie, metal and the like. I also have a strange affection for acoustic, female indie artists and Broadway shows. Other than that, I'm the editor of the newspaper at Eckerd and am happy to be a part of the CL culture.
