"This small tattoo was inked in Atlanta right after dusk on a weekday in the middle of a cross-country road trip. It's a line from the song "Holocene" by Bon Iver." - Brian Sibille, Deputy News and Entertainment Editor

"My tattoo represents the importance of balance in life and nature and is an ode to my Norwegian heritage as well. I got the tattoo when I did because The Reveille needed a video of a student getting a tattoo. I offered myself up to the cause." - Chris Vasser, Videographer

"I got my tattoo the summer before I came to LSU. I am from Louisville, Kent., which uses the fleur-de-lis on its city seal and wanted to bring a piece of my hometown with me as I left the city." - Albert Burford, Sports Editor

"I derived mine from the symbol on the book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance," switching out a wrench for a magnifying glass. The magnifying glass is a symbol for my general approach in life, with the grass to signify growth." - Clayton Crockett, News Editor

"My ovarian cancer ribbon was the result of months of consideration punctuated by a drunken spring break in Gulf Shores. My grandmother, one of the two women who raised me, lived five years after her initial prognosis of six months. My mother looked on the verge of tears when I showed her, and still so when I explained, for a different reason." - Alex Cassara, Deputy Sports Editor
