Hello everyone! My name is Joanna Nicolas, and I am The Dagligtale’s Managing Editor for the 2023/2024 year. I am a Law, Crime & Justice Studies student in my third year who aspires to pursue a family law career. My goal for The Dagligtale is to ensure Augustana news is easily accessible for students, and that starts with an easy-to-read webpage. I am passionate about media and have years of experience with handling online platforms, including our campus’ own auditioned chamber choir, The Augustana Choir. I believe social media is a means of connecting with others and staying up-to-date with current events - we are online to be informed and speak our minds.
