Anterior Cruciate Ligaments
By Alexis Jenkins
Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

Stephanie Landino is a senior at Millersville University, majoring in Music Industry with a concentration in Music Management. She began her music career in elementary school when she learned how to sing and play the cello. When it came time to choose a job, Stephanie knew she wanted to pursue a career in the music industry. She quickly realized that her program was male-dominated when she sat in her first music production course and saw that roughly 75% of the group was of the opposite sex. When the opportunity arose to research issues within the music industry about a person's sex, Stephanie happily agreed. This project is especially important to Stephanie because it shows that the music industry still has a long way to go to treat everyone equally. She hopes that this will encourage women in the music industry to continue to pave the way for others and make a positive impact on the future of others. Stephanie is graduating with cum laude in May of 2020 and plans to work in the live entertainment industry planning events.
