Patrick Tanella

Patrick has been editing for newspapers ever since his sophomore English teacher told him to give it a try, and he hasn’t looked back since. He loves Marina and the Diamonds, Vampire Weekend, and Norwegian teen television shows. When he’s not at the misc office, you can find him working at the circulation desk at the library, online shopping, or critiquing mainstream music. Patrick is a sophomore psychology major that is hoping to go to get his masters in nursing following graduation.
