Occasionally Our Generation poses a question to students. The latest question is:

If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would it be and why?

“2pac, because he was sexy, and I want to tell him that we’re getting married.”

—Ashley Fried

“Mariah Carey, because she is so inspirational as a woman and a musician. She is real.”

—Keyanna Dos Santos

“Audrey Hepburn, because her life seemed so put together, and it would be cool to see how she felt about everything going on now.”

—Sarah Putnam

east valley freshman

“Stephen, the first martyr of the Christian faith, because he would have been very on fire for God.”

—Katie Arment
