Students of Loyola: Emily Morley

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

Students of Loyola: a take on the very exciting, emotional, and raw, “Humans of New York.” I want to capture the students at Loyola in a way that has not been done before. I want people’s joy and struggles to be out there, without forcing anything too much.

 

Meet Emily Morley:

 

 

Who is the most influential person in your life? 

The most influential person in my life is, without a doubt, my mother. Although we have not always seen eye to eye when I was a young, hormonal teenager, she is my very best friend. She is the strongest person I have ever met, battling cancer 3 times while raising me and my sister, and never once complaining throughout all of it. She has been through so much and she has never failed to set a perfect example of a strong, driven, and loving woman. She has shown me what true strength looks like and she has taught me that life is full of surprises and that hard times are inevitable, but I will always carry with me the things she has taught me, and continue to grow into the strong, loving woman that she has taught me to be. I hope to be half the woman she is someday.

 

 

I am a fourth year student at Loyola University Chicago. I am highly interested in journalism, and social media marketing, especially when it comes to news and fashion. My current experiences consist of sales in different companies throughout the Midwest, such as Ann Taylor and Kate Spade, and editorial work with various companies, including Her Campus and Orange Coast magazine.
