Laura Studley is a senior journalism major with a minor in criminology. There’s a chance she could get a legal studies minor too, but she’s lazy. Her pronouns are she/her/hers. She loves reporting on issues surrounding social justice as well as investigative pieces.
As news director, she is excited to be able to cover stories that are community-based first. She hopes that her work will bring out stories that will hold a lasting impact on Colorado State University’s campus and beyond.

As a first generation student, she is grateful to be given the opportunity to attend a university and write for an actual newspaper.
Born in Beihai, China, but raised in Denver, Laura spends most of her time either in the city or her temporary home in Fort Collins. Laura loves to explore new places — anywhere from Kent, Ohio to Vancouver, Canada. If she has access to a backpack and a passport, give her five minutes, and she’ll be good to go.

If she is not reporting, editing or working, she is usually reading, eating Chipotle or watching “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” — Sometimes doing two of these things at the same time.
After graduation, she hopes to continue pursuing a career in journalism, whatever form that takes.
