Stories Takeover: Mollie Keller '22
Mollie Keller '22 (Psychology), our latest Instagram Stories Student Takeover contributor, has been pretty busy this semester, juggling classes and exams with internships at the Newburgh LGBT Center and Chick-N-Bap. She answered a bunch of questions from viewers and still found time to get outside and skate around campus for a bit.
We've sorted all 14 (and counting!) Takeovers from this semester into a YouTube playlist for your viewing pleasure. Have a look, then tune in live for our next episode @sunynewpaltz.
