The Brackety-Ack Staff

Mikaela Gantz, Editor-In-Chief

Mikaela is a senior Political Science and Environmental studies double major with concentrations in Peace and Justice Studies and Legal Studies. Aside from being EIC of the BA, she is also an Outdoor Adventures guide, Honors President, a subject tutor, a spiritual life fellow, and a civic engagement alternative break trip leader. Off-campus, she works at Walkabout Outfitter in Roanoke and Treetop Quest in Explore Park. She will be headed off to law school next year! Her motto/advice is…

“Be happy and fill your life with people who support you in your happiness, life is too serious to take seriously”

 

Sabrina Rogers, Entertainment Editor

Sabrina is a sophomore Creative Writing major (soon to be Publishing concentration). While being an editor for the BA, she is also part of the Alpha Psi Omega honor society for the Theater department and a teacher’s assistant in the business department. Off campus you can find her boot-scoot boogying on the dance floor, line dancing her heart out or playing with light sabers outside of Wortmann Complex (when it’s not wicked cold out). Knowing her, she is probably telling everyone

“Ars longa, vita brevis” or “Art is long, life is short” because who doesn’t love Latin phrases!

 

 

Juniper Rogers, Folks at Noke Editor

Juniper (They/She) is a junior majoring in Creative Writing and minoring in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Publishing and Editing. When she’s not editing her page, she attends Salem City Council meetings or writes poetry about mulch. They have been working for the BA their entire college career and is excited to see the paper grow.

 

“While we scrounge up our last bits of energy finishing a three-page introduction, there is a lake high in the mountains, sailing with a smile through time.”
