Working on this project taught me a lot about college admissions that I wish I knew in high school. Check out my latest piece for @TheLantern that looks at the importance of the ACT in a post-pandemic world.

[The Lantern @TheLantern]

Standardized tests have been an important part of education for generations, but after the COVID-19 pandemic and record-low ACT scores nationally, Ohio State’s test-optional policy challenges the necessity of the exam. https://t.co/xSoVxc2mFE

I'm very excited to share my first published story as graduate student! My group and I had a great time reporting on the SF Ferry for multimedia bootcamp at @ucbsoj

[Oakland North @northoaklandnow]

When was the last time you took the ferry from #Oakland to #SanFrancisco? Riders say it's the only way to cross the bay. @neenma_ @BeccaDuncan19 Elektra Favre, Lisa Plachy and Zoe Rosenblum report. https://t.co/fdq21zC13D

Pre-trial hearings are back in motion after the murder of student Chase Meola over two years ago. @BeccaDuncan19 and I wrote a deep dive on what was said in court last month & how this case might move forward for defendant Kintie Mitchell Jr.

Follow the case with @TheLantern:

@arismith02 and I covered the Ohio Youth for Climate Justice's protests calling for the university to divest from fossil fuels. See more @TheLantern

[The Lantern @TheLantern]

Climate activists protested two consecutive Ohio State events Wednesday and Thursday, demanding the university divest from fossil fuels and invest in clean energy. https://t.co/272lKGOBCK

This Twitter attendance isn't really Twitter attendance. But it kind of is. @spencerhuntosu #lanternclass

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

It's like the end of an era. #lanternclass @spencerhuntosu

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

Today's the day. #lanternclass @spencerhuntosu

[The Lantern @TheLantern]

The Ohio State Board of Trustees held their last meeting of the semester Thursday to discuss vaccination rates, campus safety and new degree programs. https://t.co/Zh1F2G9y1Y

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

I felt some real imposter syndrome sitting next to seasoned journalists while covering this event for @TheLantern, but what a cool event to report on. Happy official welcome to the Buckeye family @PresKMJohnson!

[The Lantern @TheLantern]

After serving as President of Ohio State for over a year, Kristina M. Johnson officially holds the position in not just title, but also ceremony following the Presidential Investiture Friday afternoon.

Is today's writing exercise about sports? I guess we'll find out. Oh boy. @spencerhuntosu #lanternclass

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

I will not forget my Twitter attendance. @spencerhuntosu #lanternclass

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

Interesting things are always happening in sports. That doesn't mean I understand it, though. @spencerhuntosu #lanternclass

[Becca Duncan @BeccaDuncan19]

Personally, I tend to wake up around 5. It's for work, but I think that's pretty early. @spencerhuntosu #lanternclass
