I'm always down for a good life hack. I love this one:
If you’re traveling in a place you’ve never been before, listen to an album you’ve never heard before. Forever after that music will remind you of that place.

As a writer for ECU, I talk to donors and scholarship students all the time and hear how much scholarships lift the financial burden from these kids' shoulders. That's why I supported multiple scholarship funds on #PirateNationGives
I might be biased, but this guy is doing a great job! ⬇️
East Carolina had the largest attendance ⬆️ in the American this year, and was 1 of just 3 teams to see a bump from 2019.
@ECUPiratesFB- 8.8%
USF- 5%
Cincinnati- 3.8%
Also finished just behind UCF and Cincy for the highest average attendance in the conference.

Pecan farmer and #ECU alumna Karen Haithcock was nice enough to share her pecan pie recipe with me this week. Do you say PEE-can or puh-KAHN?

Did you know that the same guy who wrote "Scream" also wrote "Dawson's Creek"? And he's an ECU alum!

Reading the news these days, it can feel like everything is falling apart. This story was a nice respite.

Oh to be a college student again. Hard to pick a favorite from this list, but maybe ANTH 1200: Anthropology of Monsters, Zombies and Vampires?

EAST magazine is out! This issue is all about earth, and includes stories about alumni who are saving trees, protecting wildlife and growing crops.
There's even an oh-so-fun rock quiz 🪨

Excited to learn and sharpen my editing skills during the #ACES2021Online conference today and tomorrow 🤓✍️

For our #COVID19 themed alumni magazine issue, we heard from alums who went through other monumental moments during their time as college students.

It was a pleasure interviewing Rebekah Rogers for this profile. She told me that she and @ECUChancellor Philip Rogers feel a sense of purpose in returning to Greenville and that they are ready to take the helm of ECU as servant leaders 🏴☠️

So many people put in so much work for #PirateNationGives and it’s amazing to see it pay off. $6.5 million in 24 hours?! Incredible. Happy to have played a part in this day 🙌☠️🏴☠️

#GrammarTip I learned today: the term "just deserts" doesn't mean 🌵 or 🧁. "Deserts" in this sense means "deserved" and comes from the Latin word "deservire"
