hakeem anthony is a Writing major with an African Diaspora Studies minor. His work is influenced by other black artists--specifically hip hop--as well as by being multiracial, being a shy introvert, cartoons, and anime. Also, he thinks rap.genius.com is one of the best websites ever invented.
Chris Rose is a senior IMC major with a Writing minor. He writes poems for fun. One time he helped teach poetry at Ithaca Writers Institute, and his work has been published a couple of times in on-campus magazines. He has no solid plans for post-grad life, and he's sure he'll accomplish them.
