“To me, Newspaper has been a place of happiness, of comradery, of creativity and most importantly a place I can share my voice and my goal is to give everyone, in and out of journalism, that opportunity to find and share their voice.”

Senior Summer Vaughn is one of three Editor in Chiefs in her third year of newspaper. Her favorite beat is Entertainment because she loves stories and giving people the opportunity to geek out about what they love. Her dream is to tell stories, fictional or real. She wants to be able to introduce people to new media and obsessions.
