Hello! My name is Annie Chen, and I a senior concentrating in
Communication Studies. After graduation in May, I hope to work in public
relations and that can be anywhere. Preferably, some place warm. Four
years of Ann Arbor, I need some sun in the winter. But going out to the
real world is quite scary, especially when your parents want you to move
back home and live with them. I have got to find a way to break it to
them that I am not, unless I am on my last penny, living with them for a
long time.

 | What can safely and accurately be said about Ming Chen is the following: He is the man behind the View Askew Productions, Clerks, Mallrats, and the upcoming Chasing Amy websites. He has collaborated with Hollywood Director Kevin Smith, and Producer Scott Mosier on many an occasion creating what could be described as the singlemost deadliest website on the Internet today. Before Ming was sucked into this Web of Crime, he was a humble senior at the University of Michigan with a bright future
and a straight life ahead of him. Now he must be stopped at all costs.

Hello, my name is Jeffrey Brent Datz and I am currently a senior at the University of Michigan. I am a political science concentrator. I plan to attend law school following my graduation in May 1997. Hopefully, one day I will be practicing
law in my hometown of Philadelphia. Over the past four years, I have focused most of my studies within the realm of American politics. The website I chose to analyze was American Voter '96 "Sound Off." The site provided a forum for political discussions
on hot-button issues.

do not sleep, have a computer for my best friend, and find it normal
to work on projects until 4-in-the-morning" I will be graduating in May
of 1997, with the hopes of finding a job with an Advertising or Design

Hello, my name is SteveAfter twenty years of bumming around the planet in search of perfect ski conditions (and various other forms of fun), I decided (actually, my wife
decided) it was time to get a 'real' life (i.e., get a job). But after
years of living off of the adrenaline rush provided by activities such as
racing over twisting, turning mountain roads on motorcycles, watching the
sun rise over mountain peaks while free-falling from planes, and schussing
down mountain slopes in waist deep powder, how could I possibly survive in
the workaday world of 9-5?
Hmm . . . having absolutely no marketable skills, I thought it best to
attend college and bone-up on becoming a productive member of society. If
nothing else, it would give me a few more years to sleep-in.
Well, after four long years I am on the verge of graduating (yahoo)! And
after three more years of law school . . . I'll worry about that then.
Anyway, I hope everyone who visits our web site finds the content fun,
thought provoking, and possibly enlightening. Enjoy!!!

Hi there! My name is Sandra Kang and I'm a senior at the
University of Michigan, studying Communications and English. I'll be
graduating in May 1997, so my biggest headache right now is finding a job.
I was born in Ann Arbor. Michigan and have lived here all my life. Of course I wanted to leave home for college, but
for the price, I couldn't beat it. So as you can guess, I'm dying to get
out of this blizzard state. My wish is to end up in California, preferably San Francisco, but I can definitely live with Los Angeles. My career interests lie in marketing and public relations, and possibly the client service field. So any tips would be
greatly appreciated.
My hobby is work. Sounds fun, eh? I don't really have much free time
because I work about 30 hours a week, but when I do, I hang out with my
friends at the bar, watch TV and sleep. I LOVE SLEEP! I would love to hear from anyone reading this.

entertainment/sports law. I am a huge sports fan, I love to shop, I am
fascinated by all aspects of the entertainment industry, and, most
importantly, I love to have fun.

also love traveling, music, and being around people. The virtual community I joined was an AA Recovery chatline.

three of the choices above. I have enjoyed taking Communication and Techonology
