Campus Cutie: Aaron Forburger

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

You may have seen him gracing the track in these flashy shorts.

But Aaron Forburger is more than just your average runner. We got to catch up with this week’s campus cutie the other day and he immediately won us over with his smile and sense of humor. “I should’ve worn my suit and tie for this,” he said as he took a seat. He totally would’ve, but he just came back from his chess club meeting (that’s right, ladies and gentlemen, he’s a smart one). Here are a few other things we found out about him.

Fun facts?
