Nate Sacurom
chemistry sophomore

“Well, I like to kinda mix my hobbies because you make a lot of friends through academia, so I’ve gotten to this point in college when I have free time. I like to make little silly videos on the internet and kind of engage in the college life and the college atmosphere to get more character. It goes from things as crazy as going up to a bunch of strangers and doing really silly dares for charity, to just chatting with people and trying to see what more they want outside of their college education.”

Octavio Castillo
sustainable agriculture and food systems junior

“For hobbies outside of academics, not really much, I do tend to walk a lot with my dog at the Edinburg Municipal Park. It’s a good time. I get to put in some steps every now and then, and I just generally, like, work out and be outside in nature.”
