Student Speak

Fall 2005

Name: Caitlin Farquharson
Class: Sophomore
Major: Anthropology
Hometown: Atlantic City, N.J.

Looks like you’re doing some holiday shopping here in the University Bookstore. Who for?
My dad; I’m going to give him this hoodie sweatshirt and long-sleeve T-shirt. It’s cold in Atlantic City, N.J.—about 10 degrees colder than here—so he’ll wear it. He’s been to Carolina before when he helped me move in, but he doesn’t have much Carolina stuff.

What about the rest of your family? They’re not getting any Carolina goodies?
The rest of my family has already bought their own shirts and things here, actually several times, so I’m just shopping for him today.

So your dad will be an honorary Gamecock when he pulls on his hoodie.
Yeah, he’s a chef at one of the casinos in Atlantic City. He didn’t go to college, so Carolina can be his school, too.

What are your plans for the holidays?
I’m going home. It will be a long drive—about 12 hours—but I want to do it in one day. It will be the first time I’ve driven it alone. My family will go down to Florida for a few days, but other than that, I’m just looking forward to being home.

What does next semester look like?
I’ll be taking more anthropology courses next semester, which I’m looking forward to. I’m really interested in cultural anthropology, so it will be fun to start delving into that more.
