The candidate profiles for our next EIC are live! If you love us or hate us, you should read them.
Let me introduce you to the candidates:
Langston Taylor is a 6'1" senior from Marion, Iowa.
One time Sarah Vassello met John Stamos on a plane, and he told her she was pretty.
Alison Krug is impossibly fast and strong. Her skin is pale white and ice cold. Her eyes change color, and sometimes she speaks like she's from a different time. You know what she is. Say it. Out loud.
Jane Wester is a golden retriever with opposable thumbs.
None of those things are actually true. Check out those links to see their real profiles and consider joining our selection committee.
