#WhyMoody: Say hello to Kate Pursley, an incoming utjschool student from Odessa, TX! Kate chose #TEXASMoody because of its legacy and culture. “There are so many opportunities available at Moody, and I truly believe that it will contribute to my success as a future journalist.” “It allows me to engage in a multitude of events and organizations by doing something I love doing, writing.” She’s especially looking forward to meeting fellow journalism students, sharing stories and being inspired by the unique perspectives of the Moody community. Before heading to the Forty Acres, Kate is spending time with friends and family—and getting excited about joining student media. She’d love advice on how to get involved with news and journalism organizations at UT and what to prepare to stand out! Moody students and alums, drop your recs and advice below!
