Samantha Frost // Roots (Fall 2018) Editor-in-Chief

Dear reader,

Our roots define who we are.

Of course, that definition is loose. Some think of it as our core values, our history or our home. Others interpret it as an unseen network that grounds us and helps us grow.

Undeniably, roots shape the stories we must tell.

I invite you to explore your definition of roots as you dig into the pages of this magazine. In this collection of stories, you’ll find a struggle for preservation, unlikely friendships, and reflections on our innermost convictions.

Each story expresses the countless ways to define roots. We all face trials and tribulations, but like a tree that weathered a storm, we grow stronger and our roots grow deeper.

Truly,

Samantha Frost
