Grace Nugent, co-editor-in-chief
(she/her)
Grace Nugent is a senior and a third-year staffer on The Shield and currently is one of the four editors in chief. For her the most enjoyable parts of being on staff are writing both the quirky eccentric movie reviews as well as the big news pieces and stress ingesting caffeine with her fellow amazing EICs. When Nugent is not stressing over Lucidpress pages, getting a Tuesday Top 10 posted before midnight or frantically writing a baseball caption she enjoys listening to her vinyl record collection of “50 year old man music” watching (and arguing) over any means of sporting event or laughing her butt off with her friends. Nugent is in a place of denial that this is her last go-round but is excited for what the year has to bring. She’d like to thank Mr. Dave Winter for putting up with all of her death stares, aggressive comments and for being the Yoda to her struggling Luke Skywalker.
