Minor. She enjoys creative writing, trippy movies, public speaking, and

Kaitlyn Pierce
Kaitlyn
is a senior History major who reads too much and has a near-boundless supply of (moderately) useless knowledge. Rumor has it that she is a cartoonist, a
writer, and a Nazi-fighting archaeologist. When it comes to papers, Kaitlyn is
happy to give her assistance to matters such as developing a good, analytical
thesis, organization and flow, constructing a sound argument, and other such enjoyable topics.

Micah Bahchech
Micah was raised in a small town and educated at a small high school who transitioned to a
different small town and a rather small college (the illustrious silver and
blue, the mountainous pinnacle of enlightenment and academia, Berry College).
His life heretofore appears unremarkable for two reasons: his crime fighting
alter ego has been kept secret, and he has yet to publish the work of
literature that will define a genre, inspire a generation, and clear the path
towards a new way of thinking (probably it will be called Post-postmodernism).
He is an English major and works as a staff reporter for Berry’s own Campus
Carrier.
Noëlle Mouton
Noëlle is a sophomore Animal Science major and
Chemistry minor who is excited about her second year at Berry. She enjoys
dancing with Berry's Dance Troupe, and loves sunsets, british accents, Titanic,
and anything with peanut butter. As far as the writing process is concerned,
she especially loves to work with writers on achieving clarity as well as
improving organization and sentence structure.
