Meet Rachel Scully, one of our Campus Editors! Rachel is a senior at John Carroll University from Erie, Pennsylvania. She is a double major in Political Science and Communication with a minor in Spanish. Rachel is a former intern at The Hill with numerous stories published ranging from politics to celebrity news.
Rachel started writing for The Carroll News her freshman year in 2017. Later that year, she became the Editor of Arts & Life and continued working for the section until her senior year. She, then, accepted a role as Campus Editor.
Journalism has always been an incredible passion for her, whether it be writing, broadcasting or designing. She attended an arts school for her first two years of high school. There, she found a passion in design and writing while working with brilliant peers. Rachel later fell in love with broadcasting after attending classes at John Carroll and continues to strive for a career that incorporates all three.
Rachel spent a semester abroad in Ireland where she immersed herself in a variety of cultures while traveling around Europe.
In addition to The Carroll News, she is involved in Speech and Debate and qualified for nationals in After Dinner Speaking. Outside of school, Rachel's hobbies include backpacking, traveling, playing the ukulele and running. She plans to complete the Pacific Coast Trail or the Appalachian Trail someday.
In the future, she hopes to end up in Washington D.C. pursuing a career in political journalism.
