This year I am a senior and I am currently on the school’s varsity field hockey team, a part of the yearbook committee, and a member of the Key Club. It is my first time participating in the creation of the Hatter’s Herald and it is also my first encounter with journalism and all which it entails. Ever since I was in elementary school I have had a passion for writing. However, I have always been a bit unsure as to what specific type of writing I would like to study and transform into a career. I decided to take this class in the hopes of getting a feel for journalism and to explore it as a potential field I’d like to pursue in my future.
