The Trouble with Empathy
Morgan is a sophomore at Gettysburg College. She is an English major with a Film minor, incorporating all of her interests. She has loved to write for many years, and she hopes to write for a career after college. During her senior year of high school, she had the opportunity to write for a teen column in her local newspaper and that experience not only gave her a taste of a career in journalism but reaffirmed her love and writing and reminded her why she wants to be a professional writer someday. In addition to writing, she also loves to read, watch films, and spend time with family and friends.
