Meet The Reporter: Out of all the schools in the world, why ASU?
Hailey Forbis

Welcome to the second segment of "Meet The Reporter."

Our team of writers at ASU Odyssey will be writing monthly "Meet The Reporters" as an effort to make things fun for our readers and let you get to know us!

If you asked me a year ago what college I would be attending, Arizona State University would be the bottom of the list. ASU was my 'last resort school' if no other place accepted me, but here I am one year later- a freshmen at ASU.

You might be wondering how the heck I ended up here, and the answer is simple. ASU has one of the best journalism schools in the nation and since I was planning to major in Journalism it only made sense.

The Walter Cronkite School is the reason for so many opportunities Ive had even as a freshmen. For example, I am a writer for Odyssey and I am a reporter for Cronkite Cut (the entertainment news show that airs on Youtube weekly). This school has some of the greatest and most qualified professors. It hasn't even been a full semester yet, and I know that this is where I'm supposed to be!

After turning 16, our parents start to push us to get a job and take on some responsibility. We start to make our own money in order to fund the fun we intend on having throughout the year.
