Sebastian DiNatale
co-Editor-In-Chief, Humor Editor
Sebastian DiNatale is currently a Senior, a Political Science Major with a minor is Film Studies and Italian. As leaves change during the autumnal harvest, so do the many faces of Sebby. Often characterized as a fiercely independent person, he may at times retreat into exile for weeks at a time before unveiling his newest addition to The Forum. One of the last surviving students of rhetoric, and a master of the art of improvisational character acting, Sebastian has been able to convince every personage he meets that he is the “real Sebby.” This could not be further from the truth, as he morphs from one face to the next, usually taking comfort behind his factious sarcasm. Also the media mogul, he currently serves as the Station Manager for GBurg TV, bringing broadcasted light to the dorms of the unenlightened bathed in shadow.
Please enjoy this Forum.

Fine Arts Editor
Alex McComas is a freshman who has yet to declare a major, but studies with enthusiasm Civil War History and Art. She has absolutely no idea what she would like to do in the future, but for the time being, she’s content with strengthening her writing skills through the Forum, learning how to swing dance, learning how to look at the world through open eyes, and nursing an unhealthy obsession with the M*A*S*H TV show. She was raised in Hagerstown, Maryland.

Kyle Lawson
Arts & Entertainment Editor
Kyle has been a member of The Forum since his freshman year and joined because he got an email after signing up at the Activities Fair. Since then he has written for various sections and served as News editor and Arts and Entertainment Editor. He is dumb founded at how respectable The Forum has become and remembers the days when writing for The Forum and The Gettysburgian would have brought great distrust.
He enjoys the works of H.P. Lovecraft and Neil Gaiman and often wonders if such writers are speaking the truth, but the world is not yet ready for their true knowledge.
