Ava Rushing, Online EiC

Hello there! I’m Ava Rushing and this is my third year in SPUB. I am the Online Editor in Chief which means that I am the person publishing the content here! Journalism is near and dear to my heart; student journalism will always matter because we get to tell the stories about what is happening around us, and in some cases change the world as we do so. Outside of SPUB I am involved in ceramics, graphic design, and theater! I can’t wait to share with you all the plans I have for this year and finish my last year in SPUB strong.
