Returning for his fourth semester, The Chronicle is happy to welcome back Head Editor Mason Bryant. Bryant has been a consistent contributor since he transfered to SSU two years ago, and he is excited to continue doing what he loves! He is a senior studying communications. He is from Flatwoods, KY, and graduated from Russell High School in 2016. This is his second and last semester serving as Head Editor. His main objective while in the Head Editor position is to help The Chronicle grow and improve the quality of the content produced.

Bryant’s greatest passion is seeking discomfort as a way to push himself out of the normal comfort zone in search of personal growth, new perspectives, and happiness. This search can be seen in Bryant’s writing as well; deeming that no lead is too ‘out there’ to make a great story. He especially loves writing pieces on subjects that he has no prior knowledge of; he sees this as a valuable exercise in awareness, development, and expanding his horizons for the benefit of his readers. He also enjoys poetry, video games, golf, and most of all, spending quality time with family and friends. Bryant is excited to get to finish his Chronicle career strong, hoping to make an impact that will motivate future student journalists to strive for greatness.
