Senior Alexis Perno doesn’t really know what her exact job is on staff, but it’s probably something close to Print Editor (?). As the resident lesbian on the Pep O’ Plant staff, she revels in fighting Ariana Cimino in a contest of who loves girls more- it's always neck and neck. Along with this, Alexis still idolizes Tampa Bay Times assistant sports editor Ernest Hooper and prays to his altar every night. Similar to last year, Alexis still needs to meet a word count and is short, so all hail Ernest Hooper. Alexis also prays that he never finds these bios.
