Hello! My name is Alaina Burris. This is my sixth semester on the Campus and my fifth semester as the Editor-in-Chief. Prior to the Campus, I was a three-year writer for my high school’s yearbook. Here at Ottawa, I’m a junior and am double majoring in Communications and English. I came to Ottawa on a bowling scholarship, so I am also a third-year member of the bowling team. Although I’m not involved in much, my education, the newspaper and bowling make everything in my life somewhat chaotic, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Go Braves!

Hey howdy hey, it is Kylee Weber! This is my fifth semester on the Campus newspaper, I am in charge of all the graphical designs and photography editing. Here at Ottawa University, I am a senior this semester. I am a communications major and am involved in several activities on campus. I came to Ottawa on a softball scholarship, I then joined the Optimist Club soon after. I was elected this year to be a part of the Ottawa University, SIGMA ALPHA ALPHA (honors society for academics). This year I decided to become a tutor for Communications to help other students. I have a busy schedule day in and day out but nothing can ever slow me down. I love being a student here at Ottawa, GO BRAVES!!!

Hey everyone! My name is Brynden Grow and this is my fourth semester being a part of the Campus here at Ottawa. I’m a communications major with a speech focus with hopes of going into a broadcasting career in weather. This year, I am the media manager for the school newspaper. A couple of things I’m a part of on campus: I’m a bowler, a Top-Scholar and an RA in Martin Hall. I couldn’t be more excited this year to be a part of this team!

Hi there, my name is Joslyn Banta. I am a transfer student from the University of Missouri. This year I am a sophomore here at Ottawa University and I’m also a cheerleader. I have been writing stories for as long as I can remember; I also remember playing at home, what we called “Good Morning Banta’s,” which consisted of me reporting to my parents what was happening each day. Throughout my high school career, I wrote articles for my school's newspaper every week and reported on important news that was happening at my school. I am extremely excited to be able to write for the Campus and to be here at Ottawa University! Go Braves!

Hello! My name is Dalyn Johnson. I was introduced to Ottawa on a football scholarship where I’ve met many lifelong friends. My first couple years were spent kind of figuring out which career path I wanted to enter. As a junior this year, my passion for sports journalism has grown even more. My mother always told me to follow my dreams, so here I am!

My name is Olivia Kloster, I am a junior here at Ottawa. This is my second semester being a part of the Campus newspaper. I spend my time taking care of my many plants.
