There’s a New Campus Correspondent in Town

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Scranton chapter.

Her Campus Scranton will always have a place in my heart. As graduation is quickly approaching I needed to find a replacement for my position as campus correspondent and it was like deciding on a babysitter for my first child because that is just how much this means to me. Are they going to get along with everyone and take things as serious as I do? Elizabeth was the perfect package with her gleaming personality; strong work ethic and excellent time management skills just to mention a few. I can leave confidently knowing that Elizabeth and Dania with be leading the Scranton chapter. I love you both like sisters and will always be here for you, thank you for continuing this. Read on to learn more about your new campus correspondent.
