About Meghan Riddlespurger - Ranger Reporter
Meghan is a mass communications/advertising/public relations major. She's a newbie to the journalism world and is a student reporter for The Ranger, but spent all four years in high school on the speech and debate team, and is a big fan of communication. She plans to finish her BA in mass communication at WT in spring 2015, and then will decide from there if she's ready for grad school or if she will pursue a career in advertising, PR, or another career in communication. She hopes to go where the job market will have more variety and adventure. She like cats, crocheting, arguing with people on Facebook for no legitimate reason, and writing for The Ranger. But mainly cats. Cats are definitely her favorite thing.
