Scott Hansen is a senior print journalism major with a topical minor in film studies. This is his seventh semester working for The Spectator, making him the oldest and most experienced staff member. Last semester Scott took on his first leadership role with the paper as its Managing Editor. However, prior to that, he had served two semesters as a chief copy editor, one semester as a copy editor, one semester as a Showcase (now the Currents section) editor and Editorial page editor.
Scott hopes to some day be a movie critic for a newspaper or reputable magazine like Entertainment Weekly while being a film study professor at a reputable college on the side. He loves to spend his time listening to Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga and often finds himself memorizing the choreography from the latter’s music videos.
When not cheering on his favorite sports teams (San Francisco 49ers, Orlando Magic, Florida Marlins, and San Jose Sharks) or visiting Chicago to see where scenes from "The Dark Knight" were filmed, Scott loves to watch movies, most notably "The Dark Knight," “Jaws,” any of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” films and last but not least, “The Notebook.” He also loves to make food, as Rachael Ray is one of his many inspirations and personal heroes along with chef Gordon Ramsey of “Hell’s Kitchen.” Additionally, Scott likes to undertake eating challenges his roommate and friends create, such as eating a jar of peanut butter in 30 minutes, a five-pound burger in 30 minutes, or eating four pounds of burritos in under an hour.
