Wanting to be a political journalist, Savana Kascak of Thornton, Colorado, found support and encouragement at Hastings College, in part by working collaboratively with her advisor, political science professor Dr. Bob Amyot.
“I love that Hastings College has pushed me beyond my limits of what I thought I could do,” Kascak said, who added that professors pushed her to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
To support her career goal, she also found an internship at the Hastings Tribune where she has been able to write numerous stories and features, including developing a couple of series, one about artificial intelligence and another about mental health in school-aged students. She’s also written about elections, political groups and covered meetings for the Tribune.
