Trent Scott:
This is Mr. Scott’s 30th year of advising the Index. During those years, he has seen technology evolve from the darkroom to digital photography, from waxing down pages to uploading to the web site and from a tabloid format with clip art to a professional newspaper look and layout. The one aspect that has remained constant, however, has been the quality of staff members and the sanctity of production hours spent feasting, talking, bonding and occasionally working. Leaving a career in journalism to gain his certification to teach English, Scott has pursued a circuitous and ironic career path. When he is not teaching or advising the paper, he spends time with his wife and two girls, watches his beloved Packers and (when time allows) shoots a few zombies or plays Madden. Index4Life!
Haniya Mecci
Hi, I’m Haniya! I’m a senior and this is my second year as a copy editor. This year I’m in a copy editing duo with Genna (the “copy-cats”)! Outside of the Index I spend time at my job, reading, doing puzzles, or even volunteering in the community. Some of my favorite shows to watch in my free time are Game of Thrones, House of The Dragon, Gilmore Girls, Emily in Paris, and many more! I’m looking forward to working with new people and hope to see you guys around!
Evan Parfitt
Alright people, let’s do this one last time. My name is Evan Parfitt, and for the last three years, I’ve been one of your amazing, spectacular, sensational, astonishing, incredible entertainment editors. Usually, you can find me geeking out over any and all forms of entertainment media and pop culture in general, but when I’m not doing that, I’m most likely doing something that has to do with the pool, collecting various trinkets and doodads from multiple time periods, or spending time with my family. With my coeditor, Luis, you’re sure to see a new era of your beloved Entertainment section shine. If you’re thinking of joining our award-winning Index family or just want to say hi, don’t be a stranger!
Jacob stinski
Hello, my name is Jacob and this will be my first and last year as a Sports Index editor. I am a cross country runner and a decent tennis player, so I should (hopefully) know about sports. I hope to help any writers jumping onto the Index team, so if you have any questions, let me know.
Luis Foncseca
I'm a senior and one of the entertainment editors for this year. Writing for Index was intended to extend out as far as a typical college app extracurricular, but got kind of interesting. I look forward to reading and collaborating with what others add to enrich the section this year (along with earning a new rational excuse to skip studying).
