Meet Campus Cutie Nick MacKinnon!

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

Name: Nick MacKinnon

Year: 4th year senior on the 5 year dumb track

Major: Mechanical Engineering           Minor: Business Administration

Hometown: Eugene, Oregon

Favorite space on campus: Down by the water at River Campus. No distractions, plus it’s the perfect spot to watch the sunset. But shhh, don’t tell P-Safe!

What is the theme song of your life: When I’m not Waitin’ On a Woman (Brad Paisley), it’s typically Southern State of Mind by Darius Rucker

If you were deserted on an island, what 3 things would you take with you: A lawn chair, a box of Corona and of course some limes. Too cliché.

Describe your perfect date: April 25th… Actually, I’m big on surprises so I won’t share my secrets. But if someone were planning a date for me, she couldn’t go wrong with driving out to the airport, sitting in my truck bed and watching planes land at sunset.

What about women confuses you: Everything! A simpler question would be asking what I understand. But honestly, I’ve never understood the attraction to jerks who mistreat girls. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

What is your dream job: F-15 Fighter Pilot! That’s what I’m working toward every single day. Who wants to use their degree anyways?

I like places. I like people. I like stories; every place, and every person has a story. I want to write as many stories about that place and those people until the stories run dry. Which is...never. So I will continue to write. Please, tell me a story.
