Madison Fraser is one of Her Campus NYU’s Campus Correspondents and a Gallatin senior studying Journalism, Digital Media, and a minor in Nutrition.

Her celebrity crush is Harry Styles, and has no qualms arguing about the musical value of One Direction (so don’t try, you guys).
Erin Siu is one of Her Campus NYU’s Campus Correspondents and a Gallatin junior studying Comparative Literature and Music. On most days, you can find her at local coffee shops or cafés with her nose in a book. When she’s not falling in love with fictional characters, she’s probably binge-watching Younger or How I Met Your Mother. She enjoys snacking on goldfish, traveling and going to concerts in New York.
Alexa Lavian is a proud NY native looking to make it big on Wall Street one day. She is currently a sophomore in Stern studying Finance & Accounting. This past summer, she traveled to Israel with family and interned at AIG in the financial district.

Über-passionate about skincare, Carly hopes to pursue a career in the beauty industry in marketing and product development.
Hannah Song is one of Her Campus NYU’s Social Media Directors. She is a sophomore at Steinhardt, studying MCC.
