Hello, my name is Zinn Kurose, and this is my first year as a writer for The Cane Tassel. I am a Junior in the Academy of Professional and Public Services. My mother used to be a newswriting teacher at Radford High School and encouraged me to try the newswriting class here. After high school, I plan to go to University of Vermont and go into animal sciences. This year, I hope to receive A’s in all of my classes and meet/make new friends.
