"I think the important thing is not to get bogged down. Think about what you are going to be doing for the rest of your life. You have to
transfer to a university. The best way is to take stuff that interests you intellectually and go from there. Everything else hopefully falls into place."
- Arts & Entertainment Editor Thomas Guffey
"Just be prepared and don't be
afraid to ask questions, no matter
how stupid they may sound, because
in the end you will not have
to suffer the repercussions."
- News Editor Sung Kim
"Get your general education
out of the way first.
Don't worry about transferring
classes and agreements
because ultimately you need
your general education classes.
That gives you time to decide
what to do with the rest
of your life."
- Sports Editor Olga Ardulov
"Don't bite off more than
you can chew by taking too
many classes. Also don't take
two hard classes at once such
as English and Biology because
it will be too much of
a load. Try to take a least one
fun class every quarter."
- Former Sports Editor Kayla Hilton
"Don't bull***t around here
at De Anza and just get things
done. Don't spend money on
cars, clothes, booze and stupid
crap. Save your money. If you are
living at home with your parents,
take advantage of that because
you won't be there for long. Don't
blow off class. Don't be one of
those idiots who sits in the back
and doesn't do homework, because
you won't get anywhere in
life. Sit in the front row. Get your
crap done. Get your general education
done and get the hell out of
here ... I wish someone had been
this blunt with me."
- Editor in chief Dan Sealana
"Get a counselor. Don't get
into your major right away.
Try to work on the general
education stuff. So you have
more time to decide, just in
case you change your mind
half way through."
