Name: Clare Coughlan
Major/minor: I’m a journalism major with history and urban studies minors.
Where are you from? I’m from northern Kentucky, near Cincinnati.
How long have you been involved in Her Campus? I’ve been involved in Her Campus since second semester of my freshman year. I’m a middler now, so about a year and a half.
What made you decide to get involved in Her Campus? My freshman year, the Her Campus president at the time came to talk to one of my journalism classes and I kind of joined on a whim. I’ve gotten more involved since then – last year I was secretary and now I’m treasurer!
What do you like to do in your spare time? Hang out with my friends. I hate it when people say that in interviews because it’s so vague! But that’s really what I’m doing most of the time! Oh, and I’m trying to teach myself how to cook. I’m making stuffed shells tonight.
What is your favorite thing about Boston? People from Boston have so much pride for their city. Even though I’ve only lived here for two years, it feels like a lot longer, and that Boston pride has definitely rubbed off on me.
What is your dream job? I wish I knew!
Any other random information readers should know? I just got back from a Dialogue to Jordan! I loved it and definitely plan on going abroad again soon. I think everyone should study abroad.
