Leaders for 02-03

Academic Year

 

Hong Kaing

 

After spending the better part of a decade in college, Hong will finally be graduating this upcoming Spring semester - praise the Lord!  He will be graduating with a degree in Systems Engineering after six long years in college.  This is Hong's second year as president of InterVarsity here at Mason and he hopes it's his last.  Not that he didn't have fun, but he isn't looking forward to a seventh year at Mason!  Unlike Whitney, who wants to have a royal title (see her bio), Hong desires a title that will instill fear into the fellowship. That is why he is still lobbying to change his official title to 'Overlord.' His dream is to have the fellowship chant "All hail Overlord Kaing!" The fellowhsip asks that you pray daily for Hong's mental state.

 

 

 

Unable to attract women with his looks, Hong thought purchasing this car would help his luck with the ladies - he was wrong.  Apparently Hong forgot what decade he was living in and thought power steering and air conditioning were new features for cars.  He would constantly brag about his 'luxury' car to his friends, who cared to much about Hong's feelings to tell him he was nuts.  He would also brag about the acceleration time of 0-60mph in about 30 seconds and about the 'six-red' (his car has six different shades of red on it) paint job on his car.  Hong is actually saving up to get a new car, since the air conditioner in this one is broken.  Let's hope that savings account starts filling up fast! 

Whitney Tudor

 

Whitney has modeled her new look after Foxy Cleopatra, from the newest Austin Powers movie.  She will be a sophomore at Mason and is currently majoring in Social Work.  Unlike Hong, Whitney plans to graduate in the standard four years.  (What she doesn't realize is that Hong also planned to graduate in four years!)  Whitney is the vice president of InterVarsity this year, her first as a leader of the fellowship. While most girls want to grow up to be princesses, Whitney feels that princesses are brats and would rather be referred to as Queen Whitney, aka 'The Belly Button Queen.' Another interesting bit of information about Whitney: her nickname is the 'nocturnal flatulator.'  You'll have to ask her how she got that name!

 

 

 

Jeff graduated from Mason in Summer '02 with a degree in Computer Science, which means he's making a lot of money right now.  He was heavily involved with InterVarsity while he was at Mason and has volunteered to help lead worship for us even though he's no longer a student. What a nice guy he is!  

 

 

Since dogs are the offical* pet of choice for InterVarsity students, it's only appropriate that the GMU chapter of IV have dogs for mascots. So here they are:  Pneumotos (aka ‘Pneumo’) is on the left and he loves to wrestle with you.  Charis (‘Pickle’), middle, is the youngest, and she thinks she’s the junx.  Unwilling to eat from her own bowl she consistently steals food from the other dog’s bowls.  This little sinful act of hers has caused her to become rather portly.  Phileo (‘Babygirl’) is our ‘special’ dog.  Often confused when asked to sit she’ll sit, lay down and bark simultaneously hoping for a treat.
*(by official, we mean unofficial.)
