Letter from the Editors, Issue 4 — Volume CVIII

Sophia Saker, Sammy Kagan, and Avani Kalra|November 20, 2018

Happy Thanksgiving Parker!

We hope you’re all still alive after the past few weeks! Congratulations on making it to the first break of the school year 🙂

Eat some really good food for us this weekend, and don’t forget to catch up on your sleep!

We got some great content in this issue you won’t want to miss.

Make sure you check out Alex Ori’s article about the Young Men of Color Symposium we hosted at Parker this fall and Tess Wayland’s update on the (still) empty Cosi property across the street.

We’re also excited to announce there is a new way to log-in to the “Weekly” website with your Parker email—take a look if you haven’t already.

As always, keep an eye out for anything you read that sparks your interest. If you’ve got something to say, write us a Letter to the Editors!

Much love and Happy Turkey Day!

Sammy, Avani, and Sophia

About the Writers

Sophia Saker, Editor-in-Chief

This year is Sophia's fourth and final on "The Weekly." She is beyond excited to serve as "Editor in Chief," and can't wait to lead the staff into another great year. In previous years she served as Features Editor, Copy Editor, and Staff Writer. She also co-led the "Journalism and Society Today" symposium last January. Over the summer, she knit a full-length scarf in one week.

Sammy Kagan, Editor-in-Chief

Sammy Kagan is excited to spend his senior year as Editor-in-Chief of “The Weekly.” He enjoys frequenting the cheese section at Jewel-Osco and hates stiff blue jeans. Sammy proudly wears a blue and white string bracelet on his left wrist which reads “WEEKLY,” despite constant assurance from his friends that such an accessory is wildly embarrassing. Ask to see it; he made it himself.

Avani Kalra, Editor-in-Chief

Avani Kalra is a senior and is ecstatic to be serving as an Editor-in-Chief of “The Weekly” this year. Previously, Avani has served as Editor-in-Chief in her junior year, a Copy Editor in her sophomore year, and a Staff Writer her freshman year. When not working on “The Weekly,” (which is rare) Avani can be found catching up on sleep... so don't call her with an AP style question.
