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.
gender expression in the lgbt community
By abi risser
Abigail Risser is a junior at Millersville University majoring in English: writing studies with minors in journalism and women and gender studies. Her Zine was originally created as a final project for the course ‘Gender and Communication’, but in researching how gender is expressed and communication within the LGBTQ community, she’s taken a deep interest in the topic of gender and communication. She found in especially interesting how the LGBTQ community, despite straying from what society considers “normal”, still reflects the gender binary in how they perform their gender and identities. After receiving her undergraduate degree from Millersville, Abigail would like to use her research to continue studying how gender is performed and communicated through Communication, Culture, and Media Studies in graduate school.
