As the last week of classes comes to a close, so does my time as Features Editor of the Etownian.

I still can’t believe this is the last issue of the semester and my last issue ever. And what a wild end it has been.

Remember the first few issues? They contained articles about microbial growth and housing issues and a profile of the new Vice President for Student Life Dr. Celestino Limas.

During those hectic first weeks, I remember making an infographic about the health impacts of domestic mold with Assistant Features Editor and sophomore Aprille Mohn for the first issue.

I knew it was going to be a good semester when we agreed to include Bobby, a friendly cartoon blob. It has been a pleasure to work with her and all the Etownian staff this semester.

As the semester continued, Features connected with alumni who exemplified the motto, “Educate for Service,” and shared their stories with our readers.

We hope to continue featuring inspiring alumni in our issues next semester.

Features also welcomed a record number of seven new writers to the section and look forward to meeting new writers in the spring semester, as well.

Now, as I prepare to graduate and leave Elizabethtown College, Aprille Mohn will take over as Features Editor.

Even though this last issue has had its up’s and down’s, I am confident the Features section will continue to include fun infographics and interesting, relevant articles about the College and the surrounding community.

There is only one last thing to say: So long, and thanks for all the fish.
