Lanna Giauque

Lanna discovered the Clarion in 2012, when she became a staff writer. She quickly rose in the ranks to News Editor, and was then elected to the Editor-in-Chief position, which she held in 2014 and 2015. She transitioned into the Editor Emeritus role in 2015, which she kept through the beginning of 2016. A DU Pioneer though-and-through, Lanna received three degrees from DU; she graduated Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa with her B.A. in Geography in 2014, received her Master of Business Administration in 2015, and ultimately graduated with a Public Good Distinction and her Juris Doctor in 2017. She remembers her time with the Clarion extremely fondly, and is very proud of what her staff was able to accomplish.
