Purdue collegiettes™, meet smart and ambitious Purdue senior, Keith Vogelgesang. This week’s Campus Cutie, Keith, is not only determined to be successful, but is also on the market and as blatantly stated, is “ready to mingle.” Keith is looking for more than just a beautiful woman; he is looking for a solid conversationalist who is witty enough to keep up with him (of course, being knowledgeable about sports scores major brownie points), we love that!

Hometown: West Lafayette, IN
Age: 21
Year: Senior
Major: Hospitality & Tourism Management
Activities: Senator for Purdue Student Government
Interests:  Anything involving physical activity
Relationship Status: Single and ready to mingle

HC: What kind of qualities do you look for in a girl?
KV: I like girls that are fun, spontaneous, and witty. Double bonus if you enjoy watching sports.

HC: What would your ideal date include?
KV: Would it be cliché if I just said dinner and a movie? If a girl can hold a conversation it honestly doesn’t matter where it is.

HC: We heard that you had an externship over Christmas break, that is awesome! What did you do? Do you have an internship lined up for this summer?
KV: I was working in the accounting department at the Westin in Chicago, and to say I had the time of my life would be an understatement. I met so many new people and come on, who can complain about living on Michigan Ave for free? I actually do have a summer internship lined up as well doing marketing for Hoosier Park, a casino in Indianapolis.

HC: Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years?
KV: Good question…I could see myself going back to get my MBA in a few years while still doing accounting and financing for a large hotel or casino. The possibilities are endless at this point, and I just take every day as it comes.
