LETTERS FROM THE EDITORS
Welcome to the Spring 2021 Edition of Her Campus American’s Collegiette! We are so excited to welcome you into our collection of remarkable hard-hitting articles, outstanding graphic design, and beautiful photography. Through HCAU, we aspire to empower women’s voices and foster an inclusive space of genuine expression. We are overjoyed to present each writer’s and designer’s individual and shared expressions through this vessel of artistry. We have navigated a number of challenges this year during the pandemic, from online formatting adjustments to new editorial goals to expanding our HCAU family. Yet, we embraced these changes that resulted in a new way to connect HCAU to the rest of the world. While I have held a long tenure as Editor-in-Chief at HCAU, this is sadly the last edition I have the honor of producing. The last 3 years in HCAU provided me with the opportunity to grow, thrive, and connect with a community of lifelong friends and colleagues. I am beyond honored and am so incredibly proud to play a small roll in cultivating a platform on which our writers and designer can freely express themselves – and I hope you are moved by the dedication and passion that went into the production of this magazine. This edition is a culmination of light, happiness, freedom of expression, and passion and it has been my greatest pleasure to be a part of something so lovely. I truly hope you draw inspiration from the pieces of identity that come together to highlight our mission. We are extraordinarily proud of this issue and we hope it brings you as much joy as it brings us. HCXO, Hannah Andress, Editor-in-Chief
