Girl Crush of the Week: Cole Menold

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at NYU chapter.

Name: Cole Menold
Year: English
Major: 2014
Hometown: San Jacinto, California

Girl-Crush Status: Again, we have another 4.0 GPA in our midst.  Cole is that kind of person that does a million things but gets them all done in the time we finish one post from Buzzfeed.  Those little tykes she dreams of teaching one day will be very lucky to get an education from Ms. Menold, and she’ll probably end up being one of their favorite teachers.  Sharp in both brains and words and complimented with a passion for German, here’s the latest girl crush of the week. 

 

HC NYU: Who are your personal girl crushes/why?
CM: My personal girl crush is Ari Kaplan because she is an amazing friend and is super talented. She is always there to talk, a great makeup artist, and shares my insane level of crazy cat ladyness.

HC NYU: Which qualities do you think constitute not just girl crushes, but admirable people in general?
CM: I admire people who choose to do what makes them happy despite popular opinion or social pressures.

HC NYU: Are there any girl crushes you disagree with?
CM: I don’t disagree with any girl crushes! Everyone has their own type.

HC NYU: Which qualities do you pride yourself on having?
CM: I pride myself on my ability to do all of my homework in front of Netflix! Also, I love that I have lived in so many places and have formed my own unique world view. I am a pretty hard worker and am finishing my Bachelors in three years.

HC NYU: Where do you see yourself ten years from now?
CM: In ten years I see myself teaching English in a high school in southern California. Also, hopefully married with a baby.  Or just more cats.
