Happy Sunday! Excited to introduce Leo Bernstein Newman and Emma Ford.

…

Leo (he/him) is a senior from Sacramento, Calif. He has taken up the role of visuals editor after serving the editorial board as a features editor.

Leo, who is majoring in History, has recently completed his undergraduate thesis and he looks forward to his final semester of college. He loves playing music, travelling by train and cooking for his loved ones. He abhors the oxford comma.

After one semester of a rampant opining, Emma is thrilled to join The Mossy Log as the backdoor editor for the spring of sophomore year, and pass along the soapbox of her previous post as opinions editor. As a lifelong writer, potentially funny person and novice of student journalism, the opportunity to learn and grow among peers has been a gift to her in the last semester.

Emma is a double major in International Affairs and Political Science with a minor in Middle Eastern and North African Studies, followed by law school. Until then, she will stay busy with Speech and Debate, chairing the Honor Board and tutoring at the Writing Center. Outside of school, Emma finds time for art, baking, and terrible addictions to shopping and RedBull. To her dismay, all the Oxford commas have been edited out of her bio.
