The Crucible wouldn't be possible without the small, but dedicated team that helps review and put together each edition. Always looking for new motivated students to train up to replace and surpass us.

Hannah Hehn
Editor-in-Chief
Hannah has worked on The Crucible for several years now, and each semester she is more proud of the team and the edition. Getting to see new work and fresh authors blossom is the best part of the gig.
Hannah is currently doing graduate work towards an M.A. in English, and deeply misses getting to spend her time just making the edition pretty instead of filling out all these forms.

Molly Butler
Vice-President
Molly is currently working through her BA in English with a minor in Writing. The Crucible has become a staple during her time at UNC and she is excited to see it continue to grow.
When she is not doing schoolwork, you can find her writing on one of her too-many projects or practicing henchman lines for her new role of VP.
