Lauren Week Class: Sophomore Hometown: Vacaville, CA Position: Artistic Captain Major: Political Economy and Legal Studies

FAVORITE PART OF CAL GAME DAY: My favorite part of Cal game day is the "GO BEARS" cheer that goes back and forth across Memorial Stadium between the students and alumni, letting everyone know that this IS BEAR TERRITORY!

FAVORITE CAL TRADITION: Singing all the Cal songs!

THE BEST RESTAURANT IN BERKELEY IS ... WHY? Unfortunately I've never had the pleasure of dining at Chez Panisse, although I hope to in the future! For now my favorite restaurant would have to be Thai Basil in the Asian Ghetto. It's delicious! And also a little more on my budget...I recommend the Basil Chicken!

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST EXPERIENCE AT CAL? Besides cheering on the Golden Bears, my best experience here at Cal would be the night my friends and I rolled down 4.0 Hill at midnight, while the sprinklers were on! It was incredibly fun...and I got a 4.0 that semester!

MOST INFLUENTIAL TEACHER: Alan Pomerantz- my first semester freshmen seminar professor. His class truly taught me "how to think" and further developed my interest in the law, the constitution, and civil rights.

FAVORITE QUOTE: "The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we're alone" -The Five People You Meet in Heaven, Mitch Albom

WHERE WILL YOU BE IN 10 YEARS? In ten years I hope to have graduated from law school and be working either in corporate or patent law, while also being actively involved with politics.
