What does your school supplies haul say about you?
August 6, 2025
As NC students pack their school bags for the upcoming semester, they ponder what they will need and what will keep their backpacks from growing too heavy. Their freshly received syllabi guide their rampages through the back-to-school sections of department stores and office supply shops. As teachers might observe, the unique way each individual approaches the task reflects part of his or her academic identity.

About the Contributor
Rosalyn Schwanke, Editor-in-Chief
In a flash of 7-year-old creativity, a young Rosalyn Schwanke wrote the first piece she felt truly proud of. In a dotted and lined notebook, with space at the top of each page for a crayon drawing, an undefeatable argument played out–the tooth fairy works harder than Santa Claus–and the writing fair judges agreed. With this newfound critical acclaim under her belt, she realized her love for writing. As a current NC senior, Rosalyn adores The Chant both as a creative outlet and an escape. She hopes to utilize her time as Editor-in-Chief to help other aspiring writers reach a new level of skill while she continues to research topics she loves.
When she’s not at her keyboard, Rosalyn can be found thrifting, playing her bass, creating art or listening to a vintage record. As she enters her final year of high school, she hopes to make an impact as an officer in the Key Club and National Honor Society.
