Anthropology major, Connor Horsman!

We gave students a piece of paper with only two words on it, and they filled out the rest. Senior Connor Horsman says, “I am creative and driven,” which is fitting for the English: creative writing and anthropology double major.

Connor works as a copy editor for Open Field, Cornell's annual literary collection of student work, as well as working as a consultant at the Dungy Writing Studio, helping students with papers and other writing assignments they may want help with.

Connor is also currently a member and moderator of the Chess and Games Club at Cornell.
