“Probably about women’s rights. I’d talk about how it is in other countries because I come from a country where women’s rights don’t exist. I want people here to appreciate what they have.” Selma Sarif, WTMC
“Permaculture. I know we have [a garden] on campus. It’s what Native people did when farming, like the Three Sisters. It’s the plants that work together and support each other in their growth. We might have to go back to that, due to climate change.” Anna Lyon, social work
“You can’t go wrong when talking about mental health. Since we’re at school, I’d talk about schoolwork and balancing that with being happy. That’s a TED Talk I’d need to hear.” Ricky Taylor, pre-nurse
“Education and the school system. Just about my feelings on it and how it functions. I’m in the middle [with opinions].” Carson Bohnwagner, WTMC
“I’d say something like culture appreciation. For me, I’d talk about Nigeria and those places in that part of the world. So many people have misconceptions, so I’d want to enlighten them.” Ike Obiora, biochemistry
“The importance of education. That’s always on my mind. Even more important is to make it accessible and get everyone at the table.” Tessa Kipke, undecided
“I’d say mental health – it’s important. I’ve been struggling hard. Every time I’m just getting there and trying to work with my therapist, something puts me back where I started. It’s very difficult for me.” Sarah Anmaita, business administration
