Chalina Morgan-Lopez
Hi! I’m Chalina, a third-year Park Scholar at NC State University majoring in Political Science with a concentration in International Politics, and minors in International Studies in Spanish. At NC State, I’ve been involved in student government for three years as both a senator and a member of the Executive Department. Off-campus, I serve as member of the Board of Directors at SafeBAE, a national organization dedicated to ending sexual violence in middle and high schools; a board member of Pro Choice NC where I serve on the Governance committee; and a Youth Leadership Council member of The Beautiful Project, an arts collective in Durham dedicated to sharing the stories of Black women and girls. I am a former member of the Wake County Youth Equity Cohort for the Wake County Public School System where my advocacy work revolved around making schools inclusive and safe for all students, making higher level courses accessible to students of color, addressing the school-to-prison pipeline, ending book-banning, and advocating for comprehensive sex ed which have collectively earned me features in WRAL, ABC11, WUNC, Education NC, Cardinal and Pine, Education Justice Alliance, the News & Observer, the Associated Press, the North Carolina Public School Forum, and the New York Times.Ariana Devlaliwalla

Theo Hutt
My name is Theo Hutt and I am a junior at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, studying medicine! I am currently studying for the MCAT as well as preparing what feels like a million things for my application, but I am loving every second of it! I am originally from a small town just north of Boston, Massachusetts and have lived there my entire life. I help run our MeToo Club at school, which includes hosting workshops, discussions, and presentations about topics such as consent, healthy relationships, and sexual violence. The MeToo movement has always been meaningful to me, and I have loved being surrounded by motivated, welcoming individuals within that community.
