“Nothing. Well, maybe for my family, but other than that, no. I’m too into me. Me, me, me. I’m pregnant, so I’ll be into someone else for the next five months, and then I’ll be back into me. People worry too much.”

“Maybe if there was a war and I had to be enlisted, I would probably die for the country, I guess. To protect my family I would die.”

Shawn Huish

mechanical engineering sophomore

“Family. I feel that faith in family is one of the most powerful things someone can invest themselves in. It would be a self-sacrifice for the greater good. I think the dogma of religion only separates us. Faith in family and ancestry is essential. Where I came from is where I’m going.”

Chris Pearson

psychology senior

“I don’t think I’d die for anything. Nothing’s that important. Well, for family, I guess; that’s different. And the country for the right cause.”

Chris Kleist

business sophomore

“Nobody, nothing. Nobody’s worth it. What’s the point? You’re eventually gonna die anyway. I’m not religious or anything, and I know where I’m going. Well, I would die for people’s freedom, I guess, and equal rights for everybody.”

Ana Ruiz

undeclared freshman

“My family. They’re your family. My mother and father gave me life, so I should be willing to do the same for them.”
