Lindsey Pruett, Opinions Editor

Lindsey Pruett is a senior this year. It is her second year on the Editorial Board and she is the Opinions Editor. She has a passion for the German language and hopes to apply to German colleges to be able to study abroad and further improve her language skills. In addition to German, she loves dogs very much, especially pit bulls and she is against dog discrimination. Her goals for the future are to graduate from college, become financially stable and travel the world.

“So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there.” -Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
