Emily Schutte is a sophomore at Hillsdale College studying Rhetoric and Public Address. Home for her is the innovative state of Ohio where she grew up as the middle of seven kids. Emily grew up in a household where God, music, and family were extremely important. She developed a love for her country through the patriotism of her family and through her years competing in the American Legion?s oratorical competition. While in college, she has worked as a writer for the Collegian, the college newspaper, the college?s climbing wall, and with the radio station as a newscaster. She is involved in the Catholic Society and plays viola in the college orchestra.
After college, Emily hopes to enrich her community through involvement in local politics and by starting a family in which her children will be nurtured with the same love of God, music, family, and country she is so blessed to have.
