Editor’s note: As part of a media transparency initiative, on May 8, 2017, the Collegian spent the last day of publishing of the year telling our readers about us. You can read more about the people behind our publication in the Editor’s Blog.  

Haley Candelario is the Collegian news director for the 2017-2018 school year.

Haley is a sophomore majoring in journalism and media communications and double minoring in Spanish and Music, Stage, and Sports Production.

Haley did not expect expect to enjoy journalism as much as she has enjoyed it during her first year at Colorado State University. In high school, Haley knew she was passionate about writing, but she did not want to be an English major because she felt that it would be too much reading. Haley did not have the slightest idea what journalism was, but when she started as a reporter for the Collegian, she realized journalism is what she has always wanted to do.

Haley enjoys writing feature stories on students and faculty and covering politics.

Haley can be reached at hcandelario@collegian.com for story ideas, comments or questions.
