Letter from the Editor
Here at The Ampersand, we’re a team and like one big family. We spend 11 weeks of our lives together writing, designing and photographing stories to present to the world. It’s like our own 56 page family album we like to share with everyone.
Our family is always reinventing itself; bringing in new members every semester and watching as older members move on to greater things. As an older member, it’s my time to move on.
I’ve learned so much during my three semesters in this family and I’ve witnessed many transformations along the way, including my own. Thanks to each one of my past and present Ampersand family members.
See you at the next reunion.
