John Weaver (he/him), Staff
Junior John Weaver loves to spend his free time enjoying nature and playing baseball.
Weaver has enjoyed baseball since he was 5 years old, stating that it has made a "huge impact" on his life. He said that he enjoys baseball because he’s "able to control his destiny", unlike other sports and activities. Weaver also loves the team aspect of baseball, as well as the individual portion about it. While he said that his dad ignited Weaver's passion as a fan, he was able to find his own love for the sport.
Another passion of Weaver's is observing nature because it’s 1 of the “purest forms” of our world today. While lots of things are always changing in the world, nature has stayed a constant in his life.
Weaver joined Journalism because “it was a big part of [his] dad’s life." Weaver hopes that the class will help him with his writing and interviewing skills. Weaver also believes that the skills that he will learn in Journalism will be able to help him out in the future as an adult.
