About the Authors
Jimmy Cranston
Jimmy Cranston, a first-year student at Case Western Reserve University, has no set major yet. His primary interest lies in mathematics, so he found that majoring in statistics would be a natural choice. However, he wants to be open to other possibilities, like psychology or international relations. Jimmy enjoys traveling the world, despite hailing from a town in northeast Ohio that struggles to support a thousand people: Beloit. While the westernmost point that he has visited still lies in Ohio, he has been as far north and east as Yaroslavl, Russia. He is pictured here in front of the American Falls, as viewed from Ontario, Canada. When he's not traveling, Jimmy enjoys watching theatrical productions, playing the piano, baking, stargazing, gardening, running or playing a fun game of tennis with friends, and playing card games with his grandparents.
