	Kim Brasil • Mississauga, Canada • Physical Education • 2 Years • Energetic and Spirited! • Earning a softball scholarship at USC Upsate and being part of an Atlantic Sun Conference Championship in our first year of Division I. Also, getting really involved on campus and being a leader as a student-athlete. • I would be a monkey. I love to act silly and make people laugh and I have a lot of energy that would get wasted on swinging from tree to tree.
	Andy Brooks • Guildford, England • Business Management • 2 Years • Leadership skills and I'm the best point guard in the group. • Making a birdie on the 18th hole in my club championship to shoot 69 and to win the handicap trophy for a second year in a row. • I would be a baboon, though I'm not exactly sure why.
	Morgan Bucciferro • Joliet, Ill. • Communications • 2 Years • Good leadership skills and a good listener. • Getting a volleyball scholarship. • I would be a hawk because they are smart and fly around all day.
	Asia Hall • Eastover, S.C. • Nursing and minoring in women's studies • First Year • I love to encourage, motivate and inspire others. Helping others pursue their goals, achieve their dreams and just make them smile is what makes life worth living! • Making it this far in life and being the individual who I am today. Without God, I am nothing. I give him all the praise for everything He has done for me and guiding me to become the successful, intelligent, classy and phenomenal woman I am today. • I would be a dove because they are so peaceful and I am a person of great peace.
	Stephanie Kehn • Bround Brook, NJ • Communications and minoring in Non-Profit Administration • First Year • Outgoing personality! • I haven't accomplished my greatest personal success yet. It will happen in May of 2009 when I graduate from USC Upstate with a four-year degree. I am the first person in my family to attend a University and I will be the first one to complete it and graduate. I am the oldest of five and I really strive to be a good role model for them. • I would be a whale because of their enormous size and because they are peaceful animals that swim throughout the oceans. Whales are also known to be very caring and unique animals.
	Jess Koren • Melbourne, Australia • Physical Education • First Year • I'm all about working together as a team. • Making the Dean's List. • I would be a Bald Eagle because I would be a protected animal and I can fly!
	Jamie Lightsey • Fort Mill, S.C. • Business Management • First Year • Outgoing personality and a lot of school spirit...and I can rap. • Being able to attend USC Upstate and be part of the golf team. • I would be a bear because they can climb faster than they can run...that's the thing about bear attacks, they come when you least expect it.
	Chad McCoy • Houston, TX • Biology/ Pre-Med • First Year • Personality, intelligence, ridiculously good looks and great hair! • Getting a 4.0 last semester. • I would be a really big anaconda because who wants to mess with an anaconda?!
	Julie Miller • Jeannette, PA • Communications • Two Years • I can get along with everyone and when I need to step up even if I feel stupid, I do! • Getting a golf scholarship. • I would be an elephant so I could steps on things and they wouldn't hurt me!
	Catherine Nolff • Columbia, S.C. • Business Marketing • First Year • Comedy and excitement. • Winning a Scholar All-American award for soccer. • I would be a cat because cats are sweet but can be sneaky when they need to be. They are lovable and love to be around people.
	Alyssa Roegner • Shelby Township, MI • Nursing • One Year • Hard work and committment. • My greatest personal success would probably be my freshman year of college. I finished with a 4.0 GPA despite all that I was involved with and had a great freshman soccer season, being labeled as the top returning player for this year in the Spartanburg-Herald. • I would be a dolphin because my favorite place to be is in the ocean and they spend their whole life just swimming and playing there.
	Nick Schneiders • Rietberg, Germany • Graphic Design • Two Years • Artistic ability and visibility; Logos, posters and flyers are my passion, and I am hard to miss and difficult to just walk by. • My greatest personal success would be overcoming my laziness and going to practice everyday. • I would be a cookiecutter shark (Isistius Brasiliemsis) because there is nothing better than being the most feared animal in the ocean all while eating cookies.
	David Stanbra • Worcestershire, England • IDS - Psychology concentration • Two Years • Correctly spoken English and great washboard abs. • Scoring and assiting in the men's soccer 3-1 home victory over Mercer on senior day to later earn Spartan of the Week and A-Sun Player of the Week. • I would be a lion because I want to be the King.
	Robert Stegbauer • Lynchburg, Ohio • Secondary Education • Two Years • Passion, humor and youthful exuberance. • Coming to USC Upstate from Ohio to play baseball on scholarship. • I would be a spider because not only are they awesome and scare most people, but they are also smart and very agile.
	Marc Wartenberger • Wuerzburg, Germany • Business Marketing • Two Years • I have a lot of positive energy and I'm also very outspoken. • Coming to the states and going to college. My past four years have been a great success! • I would like to be a big sea turtle because it has always been my favorite animal. Most likely, you would find me on or around the Galapagos Islands.
	Sheliah Williams • Anderson, S.C. • Business Accounting • First Year • I am very energetic and I love giving new ideas to boost our sports programs. • My greatest personal success has been maintaining a great mindset after my father passed away. My mother has been a single parent for many years now and I feel that it is my job to make her happy. • I would be a cheetah because they are beautiful animals and they run really fast!
