Speaks Out

What would be your ideal first date in L.A.?
Esther Chun Second Year Undeclared "I’d go
paintballing because it’s fun and active. I can hit the person and
if he still likes me afterward, then it’s all good." Deidra
Brick Third-year American literature and culture "I would
want to get away from school. A trip to the Getty would be nice
with dinner afterward and a walk on the beach. I’m a romantic."
Rahul Varshney Third-year Computer science and
engineering "I’d take her to a nice, romantic dinner at Gaylord’s
and then we’d stroll along Third Street where we’d watch the side
shows and have a good time." Andy Riley Graduate
student Chemistry "Going to some sort of event at a place like the
Ahmanson. A show coupled with dinner would allow us to take
advantage of L.A. and interact with each other." Albert
Pascual Fourth-year Psychobiology "Having an easygoing
conversation where you don’t have to be somebody you’re not. It
would be at a nice casual setting where we’d get lunch or coffee at
Starbuck’s." Sanam Saabar First-year Biology "I
would definitely not go with a creepy guy! A perfect date would be
going for dinner and dancing." Speaks Out compiled by Amy Golod,
