Hey there, alumni! If you don’t recognize me from my picture at the top-right of this page, my name is Mack Rivkin and I am the new Class of ’14 Newsletter Editor. I want to extend my gratitude to Bobby Castillo, the former newsletter editor and fantastic friend of mine, for his hard work and dedication to IWU and the class of 2014.
A bit about me: I studied English and Environmental Studies while at IWU, and was heavily involved with theatre. I am passionate about writing and editing, and I did a ton of it in school. When I wasn’t writing papers for class, I wrote poetry, short stories, and plays. Now, no longer a student, I still write for leisure when not working at Epiphany Farms Hospitality Group in downtown Bloomington. In my free time I enjoy riding my bike, surfing Reddit, and playing Magic the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons.
I am very excited to do even more writing as Editor of this newsletter, and I hope to serve my class well. Please email me at mrivkin@iwu.edu if you have any updates you’d like to share!
Because this is the internet, I will leave you with an adorable picture of my cats. Happy reading!
My cats, Montgomery Bagel and Amelia
