Letter from The Editor

Dear reader,

First and foremost, welcome to campus. Whether it’s your first time on campus or you’re a returning Bluejay, I want to welcome you back to Elmhurst University. 

For the past year and a half our talented team of writers and editors have been working remotely to put out issue after issue of The Leader for your consumption. This year is no different, and we are excited to announce The Leader will be back in print form for the first time since early 2020. 

Our current team of writers and editors have been working all summer to put together this amazing orientation issue for you. I cannot thank them enough for their commitment and hard work toward The Leader as we come back to print.

The Leader is always welcoming new writers, photographers, social media managers, graphic designers, and so much more. If you are interested, join us at our first meeting on Aug. 31, in Old Main 000 during protected hour. We are continuing to follow mask protocols at The Leader regardless of vaccination status, so if you choose to attend, please wear a mask. 

If you have any questions about joining The Leader, email me at gmont0454@365.elmhurst.edu. 

Have a nice read,

Gianna Montesano, Editor-in-Chief
