Matt Barbato – The Evanstonian

Matt Barbato, Managing Editor

My name’s Matthew Barbato and I’m a senior at ETHS in my third year writing for the paper. I wrote Sports sophomore year, Opinion junior year, and I am the Managing Editor this year. I also play golf and baseball, and I plan on majoring in business is college. My time as a journalist on the Evanstonian has provided me with invaluable writing, interpersonal, and critical thinking skills that I will utilize for the rest of my life.
