Kenna McNally, Co-Editor in Chief of The Red and Black

This is my third year on journalism staff and I am kind of a jack of all trades, but I especially love photography and reporting! Outside of journalism, I do choir, Scholars' Bowl, ballet at the Lawrence Arts Center, Vice-Chair of Kansas High School Democrats, and recently the founder of Lawrence Progressives!
