“Lauryn Hill because she won’t
make it abstract — she’ll just
come straight to the point. It
would have some subtle
abstraction, but you would get
the message. It would be a
cultural anthem.”
— Dawna Williams,
Dean of Student Life
“I think it’s sucky to capitalize
on such a horrible situation. It’s
almost like colonization —
reaping the benefits of something
you didn’t do.”
— Kehontas Rowe and Seth Boyles,
junior and first-year grad student
“Adele–. I think she would
give it a lot of name recognition,
plus I really love her voice; it
makes me want to curl up in my
snuggie and cry and drink hot
chocolate on a rainy day.”
— Alice Hewitt,
first-year
“Dark Dark Dark. They would
sing about the emotions this
has brought up in people and
the effects it has on everyone
else.”
— Lilly Slaughter,
first-year
“Wiz Khalifa would be all over
this.”
— Bianca Louie,
senior
