About the Contributor

Lucy Paradise, Editorials editor

Lucy is now a senior and this is her third and final year with The Owl (much to her chagrin). Lucy is eager to continue her writing works and upholding her responsibilities as the editor for the Editorials section. For her last year, Lucy will cram as many opinions and curiosities as she can into the paper. Particularly on the topics of, surprise: music, films and why college applications have become so daunting. In her spare time, Lucy serenades her dogs with her cello or piano. In addition, Lucy enjoys pole vaulting, Model UN, chess, and studying Mandarin. Lucy hopes to compose film scores in the future, but for now, Lucy likes to come home and snack on a nice cluster of crispy, crunchy purple grapes because they clearly are superior to its pathetic adversary, the green grape.
