Fourth Estate finds a new face with a new Social Media and Graphics Editor.

BY EMMA SCHAIBLE, SOCIAL MEDIA AND GRAPHICS EDITOR

Hello everyone, 

My name is Emma Schaible and I am Fourth Estate’s social media and graphics editor for the Spring 2025 semester. I am from New Jersey and a Government and International Politics and Communications double major. 

I came into Fourth Estate with a lot of ideas, particularly how to cover our campus’ interactions with government and politics so close to Washington D.C., but here I have continued to build an interest in photography and graphics. 

My passion in journalism comes from my belief that the news needs to be informative, accessible, and something people can enjoy. This semester, I want to take a new approach with color and images. I want to make Fourth Estate an organisation students can continue to rely on!

So, what is the media and graphics team all about? 

We create and approve all of the graphics and images for the paper. As editor, I have the amazing opportunity to work with journalists from all departments and photographers to bring our readers every graphic that Fourth Estate publishes. I enjoy this aspect of Student Media because I get to work with every section to bring Fourth Estate under one concise image. I am most excited to revamp the aesthetic that we currently have and bring Fourth Estate into a new era of digital media through different platforms and our current Instagram. 

If you are looking for a way to get involved with photography, editing, or graphic design, Fourth Estate’s Social Media and Graphics team would be just for you! We are looking for creative visionaries with a passion for sharing stories. 

Stay informed,

Emma G. Schaible, ‘28
