Meet the Editors
(08/22/12 12:30am)
Hi, friends. My name is Erin Jester, and I’m your editor this semester. This will be my fifth Fall semester in Gainesville, and after I graduate in December, I plan to continue working in newspapers. I don’t have much free time anymore — being an editor is a full-time job — but when I do, I enjoy going to ska shows and the beach, reading mid-20th century British and American literature, singing along with old Joni Mitchell records, rolling around the living room floor with my dog and cats and practicing modern dance. If you have an idea or complaint, or you just want to chat, shoot me an email at ejester@alligator.org. I’d love to hear from you.
