After two years as Arthur’s Trent Central Student Association (TCSA) reporter par excellence, Louanne Morin joins Volume 60 as Co-Editor. Louanne is headed into the third year of her Cultural Studies undergraduate degree at Trent, and grew up in Peterborough-Nogojiwanong. As a passionate academic and journalistic writer, she works closely with the rest of Arthur’s staff and community contributors to highlight their talents and fulfill the newspaper’s mandate as a voice for Trent students and community members. 

Beyond long hours spent in Zoom meetings, Louanne’s work at Arthur has touched upon a wide breadth of disciplines, from local politics coverage to film and music criticism. The unique perspective from which she approaches her roles as a reporter, opinion writer, and cultural critic are undeniably grounded in her history as a trans journalist in Peterborough-Nogojiwanong, as well as her enjoyment of and participation in left-field artistry.

On most weekdays, Louanne can be found at Arthur’s Sadleir House office inundating her fellow Editors’ ears with admittedly dreadful power electronics, or ruminating over her hatred of some obscure cultural theorist. On the weekends, she retreats into her cold, cold room to eat the spiciest rice bowls possible and debate Pokemon Showdown tiering policy with her roommates.
