This week’s Campus Cutie is Zach Wilkens, a sophomore Sports Management major who works on the executive board for VIC radio and participates in intramural flag football and softball. Keep reading to find out what makes Zach different from your typical college bachelor in Kristin Leffler’s interview with him. Photo credit: Kristin Leffler
 

HC: Which three words describe you best?

 

ZW: I am a bit nerdy, a bit of a romantic, and a bit introspective.

 

HC: What’s your favorite quote?

 

ZW: “What do we live for, if not to make life less difficult for each other?”

-George Eliot

 

HC: What characteristics do you look for in a girl?

 

ZW: I like a girl with a great smile and nice eyes, and a girl who wouldn’t mind spending a Saturday night just listening to music and playing Mario Kart.

 

HC: What would your dream date be like?

 

ZW: We would go out to a pretty nice restaurant for dinner, then go to a concert of a band we both like, have a blast, dance around to some great tunes, and then maybe we would get some ice cream afterwards. That sounds delicious, right?

 

HC: What would you say is your biggest life goal?

 

ZW: This will probably sound cheesy, but what I look forward to most is having a family and settling down. That, and I want to travel to the rain forests some day.

 

HC: If you could be an animal, what kind of animal would you be?

 

ZW: Okapi or a Panda. Okapis are my favorite animal. Random fact: they can clean their ear with their tongue. Oh wait, that is kind of gross. But pandas are just so damn cute; everyone would want to hug me!

 

HC: What’s your favorite band?

 

ZW: Death Cab For Cutie and Modest Mouse, I refuse to pick just one!

 

HC: What activities do you enjoy on campus?

 

ZW: Well, I really love DJing on VIC radio (www.vicradio.org). You can tune in and hear me on Thursdays at 2-4 PM EST, and I’ll even play you a request if you ask.
