Margot Mather, Arts Editor
Selfdescribed insomniac, strange notetaker and redneck Margot Mather ’17 knows that
Inklings is where she belongs.
“This year, I really immersed myself in journalism,” Mather said. “I’m just trying to be an
‘explorative journy.’”
Aside from Inklings, Mather saddles up to ride horses. As a child, pony rides were
always at the top of her wish list, which led to horseback riding lessons every week.
“I’m really redneck,” Mather said with a laugh, pointing out her blue flannel shirt, jeans
and love for horses.
Mather said that she sometimes goes to the stables just to be with horses.
“It sounds really nerdy and weird but it’s so nice to remove yourself from the stressful
school atmosphere and take a breath,” she said.
When asked about her goals for junior year, Mather kept it brief.
“Don’t fail. Don’t do that,” she said. “It’s a period of turmoil, but I’m not scared.”
