At-a-glance

Many seniors have been looking forward into their future and making decisions about where they want to go to college. Angela Maciel plans on furthering her education at her first choice school, University of California Berkeley, where she plans on majoring in biomedical engineering or possibly as an art historian. UC Berkeley is her first choice because she says, "It has a really good engineering program as well as a well-known group of free thinkers, plus I want to meet the infamous naked boy." That is of course if her plans of being a rock star fall through.

Maciel’s other half, Stephen Aldama (Dubbed ‘Stangie’), is undecided between either Stanford or UC Berkeley in hopes of being a close distance to Angela.

Stephen enjoys the environment of both schools as well as both being some of the more prestigious schools in California. Stephen will be majoring in electrical engineering and also plans on applying to M.I.T., where he claims his "Death is there…".

Kimly Hoang hopes to attend the University of Pennsylvania. Her second choice is Stanford to major in business and minor in economics. Kimly exclaims, "The University of Pennsylvania has the best undergraduate business program in the nation and it also is far away from Lompoc."

Cale Maurice will be applying to his first choice, the University of Southern California, of which he states, "Is one of the best directing schools." Cale will be attending California State Long Beach if his plan falls through and furthering his skill as a major in film with an emphasis in cinematography.
