Name: Michael Blaine
Sign: Capricorn
Year: Senior
Major: Political Science/Sociology
As the son of a Marine, Mike moved around a lot in his youth because his dad was assigned to different stations in the United States. He was born in Jacksonville, N.C., but he's lived all over Florida, California, Virginia and Washington, D.C.
So he's been around and seen quite a bit in his time.
"Outgoing, determined and optimistic," Blaine is a stand-up guy. Except when he's sitting down.
As a varsity basketball team stud and RA in McCoy, Mike also has his fair share of admirers.
His dream is to become a Division I basketball coach, but not to be as angry as Bobby Knight. His favorite film, coincidentally, is Hoosiers.
His favorite piece of clothing is a black suit with gold pinstripes, appropriate for any formal occasion. His favorite store to shop at is Rochester Big and Tall.
His worst date was when he took a girl out to a fancy restaurant in Little Italy, and she barely touched the lobster she had ordered.
Later he found out, "Even though she was a freshman, she was a little younger than I had anticipated." Play it safe: Always ask for proper ID.
His dream date would consist of a flight to the always neutral Switzerland and a stroll around Lake Geneva. But if that didn't work, he'd whisk his woman off to Philly for an Eagles Game and soft pretzels.
Name: Alison Ward
Sign: Pisces
Year: Freshman
Major: Anthropology
If you ever see a girl walking around campus with a T-shirt that reads "Jesus is my homeboy," it could very well be Alison.
This enthusiastic freshman from N.Y.C. likes to watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and listen to Bob Marley songs. Of course, it is just a bit conspicuous that both items are best consumed while high.
"Easily humored, competitive and eclectic," Alison enjoys a dish of raw fish (sushi) for dinner. In fact, her best date was when she was taken to a sushi bar, followed by a visit to a swanky lounge where who knows what happened. Well, her date knows.
Her dream date would include front row seats to a New York Knicks game, right between Spike Lee and Woody Allen.
The best pick-up line she's ever heard is less than stellar: "Hey, I'm a Polar Bear. Do you know what Polar Bears are good for? Breaking the ice!" It couldn't possibly not work.
In her spare time, Alison plays club volleyball and convenes with the JHU College Republicans. And no, she doesn't have an autographed Dick Cheney poster.
After she graduates, she wants to be a ski bum for a year and then go to medical school and become a surgeon.
The craziest thing she's ever done is hike Mt. Everest. C'mon, that's not that crazy. Getting naked is crazy.
She also has a fetish for Nantucket Reds. Ask her to explain.
What's the hottest thing about this single gal? "My well-toned liver."
