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

Name: Lauren Bueter
Year: Sophomore
Major: Veterinary Technology
Minor: Animal Science
Relationship Status: Hmm…good question!
Campus Activities: Foal Watch, Zoo Club, Animal Science TA, Purdue Off-Road Club
Interests: Country music, concerts, Fall, purple, lakes, long drives with the windows down and the music up!, anything Brad Pitt and Heath Ledger (RIP), being outside, my family, animals, and wakeboarding

HC: If you could have lunch with anyone who would it be?
LB: Probably my grandpa. I’ve never met him, but I think he’d be a pretty rad dude to meet. From what I hear he was a pretty cool cat.

HC: Finals are almost over now. How did you make it through this crazy week?
LB: StumbleUpon! And lots of coffee.

HC: What’s a little fun fact about you?
LB: My socks never match.


HC: Worst pick up line you’ve ever heard?
LB: “I want to  be a tear, born from your eye, run down your face, and die on your lips.” Yes, this was real. And yes, this was petrifying. 

HC: What is your favorite spot on Purdue’s campus?
LB: Definitely Lily Hall. And I love the animal statues outside of Lynn. 

HC: What has been your most memorable life experience to date?
LB: Probably my mission trip to Costa Rica after graduating high school. We rehabilitated a library in Nosara for a week, cleaning and updating the technology. It was one of the island’s two libraries. We also raised and donated money. It was an awesome week! We also got to go zip-lining, swim in a waterfall, and spend every day at the beach. The combination of all of these activities, both volunteering and sightseeing, is definitely something I will never forget.

Now for the tough questions…

HC: Lefty or righty?
LB: Righty

HC: Coffee or tea?
LB: Coffee

HC: Lion or tiger?
HC: Tigers, because they’re grrreat! (Get it? Get it?!)

HC: Sweet or salty?
LB: Sweet AND salty!

HC: Colts or Bears?
LB: Da Bears, baby!

HC: Is it better to have loved and lost, or never to have loved at all?
LB: Loved and lost, of course.

HC: Can’t live without?
LB: Dove chocolates with the quotes.

HC: Words of wisdom?
LB: “Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.”–William Shakespeare
