Breakfast at Crema Cafe with Windsor Hanger, HerCampus Co-Founder
KissMyCountry is very glad to partner with HerCampus during Breast Cancer Awareness month. I recently met up with Windsor Hanger, HerCampus CoFounder, for breakfast at Crèma Cafe in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Windsor was on time – as usual! – even though HerCampus had held their Year One Birthday Party the night before. Over coffee and the best English Muffin 
ever, we had a chance to catch up on the success of HerCampus. It’s a great story.
Windsor, Stephanie Kaplan and Annie Wang founded HerCampus in 2009. The three had been working on a print magazine at Harvard called Freeze College Magazine, but wanted to do more. HerCampus grew out of a desire to switch Freeze College Magazine from print to Internet and expand to other college campuses across the United States. One year later with the right mix of talent, a lot of hard work and a commitment to creating opportunities for college women interested in writing careers, HerCampus is fabulous and growing. The writing is fresh, interesting and details key aspects of campus life – classes, dorm life, guys, friends, fashion, health and everything else going on in college today. Whether you’re in college, applying to college, or miss your college days (who doesn’t?) you will love this site and read interesting posts every day.
HerCampus Enters a Successful Second Year
It’s been quite a first year for HerCampus. HerCampus now includes writing by top college journalists at over 60 college campuses, a relationship with the Huffington Post that began when Stephanie Kaplan sat next to Arianna Huffington at a Harvard Business School event and recognition by Inc. Magazine’s 30 Under 30 for the Co-Founders. And those are just the highlights – there is much, much more that’s happened in the past year. As Windsor and I finished breakfast and walked over to HerCampus’ offices it is clear there is much more to come. Just wait, and you’ll be glad to say you read about this team during their early days.
Meeting Stephanie Kaplan, HerCampus Co-Founder and Seeing HerCampus’ Offices
HerCampus operates out of a business incubator in Cambridge, and Windsor took me there for a brief tour and to meet Stephanie Kaplan, which was an unexpected bonus. Stephanie and another staff member were busily working but took the time to talk about HerCampus before it was time for their next conference call. Annie Wang was not in the office and I hope to meet Annie the next time I’m in Cambridge. The office has a positive energy and it’s clear that something special is happening within their walls. We can’t wait to see what you do in the next year – we know it’s going to be great!
