Angus Wong
Graduate business student
Song: “Horseshoes and Handgrenades” by Green Day
Why: “Usually I like to listen to more noisy songs with really strong rhythms and bass to keep myself upbeat.

Kate Preston
Dental student
Song: “Danza Kuduro” by Don Omar

Kinnery Shah
Fourth-year, international development studies student
Song: “Ready Or Not” by The Fugees
Why: I’m really into old school hip hop. This mix (I’m listening to) is all hip hop, not all old school, but mostly ’90s (music).”

Song: “Canon in D Major” by Pachelbel
Why: I’m listening to this because it calms me down during midterm season.
