Noah Corbitt is a new staff member whose initial observance of the “high school experience” has left him constantly counting down the days until he gets a break by holiday or snow flurry. He thoroughly enjoys deciphering the stories of old wars and political agendas, and will gladly spend many a period debating his stances to you from surface to thesis (yes, he is taking debate). But don’t be fooled, his range of interests lies far beyond just connections of events, and his personality far beyond academia, for not only does he enjoy reading and writing creative works, but he is also an avid football fan and will happily devote his entire weekend to following the various leagues around the country: national, collegiate, and high school. He also loves a good story, and will therefore judge both his new video games and books on plot and theme. If they pass, he will lose his life for a couple of weeks obsessing about and roaming his latest addicting environment. Already intrigued by the concept of a snack cabinet, he is waiting in suspense to see what life (and newspaper) will throw at him this year.
