This is what leadership looks like! #txst #JournalismMatters
Last day of @txst classes doesn’t mean there isn’t work for the @UniversityStar staff. I enjoyed wrapping up the year with Carson Weaver (new Editor in Chief) and Nichaela Shaheen (new Managing Editor). I love how they are leading their university!🐾
