This campus cutie got interested in Bucknell because it was her college counselor’s dream school, so he got her to fall in love with it.

The Basics

Favorite Book: The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien because it’s heavy, but it makes you think, and it’s just so powerful

Favorite Movie: The Lion King

Favorite Store: Nordstrom

Most played song on your iPod: Shattered by The Rolling Stones

Favorite class at BU: Queer Studies with Nikki Young because the class is so culturally relevant right now and necessary for our generation; it’s a subject that most people miss out on, but it’s just so informative and so fun.

Favorite aspect of BU: if you have an idea or want to do something like research or a club, you can get the support and run with it.

Campus Activities: tour guide, FLAG&BT, Arts Residential College alum, and intramural softball

General Posse: Lindsay hangs out with a few people from all sorts of groups on campus; it’s a very eclectic group of friends that makes up the most awesome group of people ever

If you could have any Superpower, what would it be: Telekinesis or being able to control the elements and the weather

Girls, Girls, Girls

Relationship Status: in a relationship

What do you look for in a date: down to earth, able to go on adventures and have fun but at the same time willing to chill out and cuddle and watch a movie; they have to be intellectually stimulating and motivated to do something!

Female turnoff: dramatic and materialistic

Ideal date: going to dinner at a Ethiopian, Indian, or Moroccan restaurant with really exotic food and then going to either a play or a poetry slam…some kind of artistic production

Celebrity Crush: Natalie Portman

Best of the Rest
