Hurd applied to several schools before choosing Morehead. liFor one thing, they offered me a chance to work on a dual emphasis on my Masters. The other reason was when I expressed interest through a friend who attends school here, within a week I received a phone call from Dr. Batra. That personal contact told me they were in- terested in me coming here. Hurd works in the Public Information Office writing press releases, feature stories, and doing a monthly calen- dar on campus events. HI like this work; its never boring. live learned so much working here. I thought I could write, but I couldn't. It is totally different from the form you learned in English Comp! Hurd said she has always wanted to write for a living. She does write fiction and has published a poem in INSCAPE. Someday I'd like to finish the book I'm working on and have it published. But that's an idealistic dream. I won't be devastated if my work is never made public. I write for me. By TERESA HILL j
