Where do you see yourself in five or 10 years? Hopefully living in a big city with my wife and maybe having some kids. The kids can definitely wait though.

Take one look at Tim Palmer, this week’s Campus Cutie, and you’ll know why he’s a perfect fit. But it’s not just his tan skin and dreamy smile that make this boy a catch. He’s also funny, sweet and active on campus and in the community.
As a member of Beta Theta Pi, he serves as Philanthropy Chair, and he loves putting on events for a great cause — like Eat for the Cure, a fundraiser for the Ron-A-Thon 5K that raised money for cancer research. Tim’s also a member of Honor Court and enjoys being physically active (he participated in football, basketball and track and field in high school).
When it comes to girls, Tim’s biggest turn-off is a girl with no sense of humor. “I love it when girls are witty and clever and just genuinely nice people,” Tim said. And the best date he’s ever been on? “My high school girlfriend took me out to a farm in her pick-up truck and set up a picnic type of deal,” he said.
So rent that pick-up truck and sharpen your comedic skills, ladies — or just say hey when you see Tim on campus!
