Wanting to be a political journalist, 萨瓦那Kascak of Thornton, Colorado, found support and encouragement at Hastings College, in part by working collaboratively with her advisor, political science professor 鲍勃·阿莫特博士.

“I love that Hastings College has pushed me beyond my limits of what I thought I could do,” Kascak said, who added that professors pushed her to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.

为了实现自己的职业目标，她还在《黑斯廷斯论坛报》（Hastings Tribune）找到了一份实习工作，在那里她写了许多故事和特写，包括开发了几个系列，一个是关于人工智能的，另一个是关于学龄学生心理健康的。 She’s also written about elections, political groups and covered meetings for the Tribune.
