Who is Mr. Andrew Gill? About Me.

This is Andrew Gill, a senior at Trinity University. I have just finished my finance and history degrees and have loved my time here at school. As far as university activities, I serve on TIGER Council, the Academic Honor Council, and the Student Finance Board. This means that I do not have a lot of free time, but hey, do I really have anything better to do?

I live only 30 minutes from Trinity, so I guess you could say that San Antonio is like home for me. In fact, here is a picture of my neighborhood in NE San Antonio:

Accordingly, as a native San Antonian, I am a die-hard Spurs fan. I actually do better in school when the Spurs when. Crazy, I know, but I just get so excited. So excited. And then I feel motivated to do my work...

Up until a year ago my parents still had a Windows 98 Computer with a 56K internet connection. So, needless to say, until I came to Trinity I really did not know much about the internet and modern computer applications. Luckily, however, I have learned quickly -- the resources here at Trinity are so awesome, one can literally immerse themselves in computers. Since immersion is the best way to learn a foreign language, it follows that it is also a great way to learn about computers and technology. That's what I think anyway.

Hi Andrew! It is nice that I am not the only senior in this class. I expect that we will have a good time and enjoy learning about computers! What are your plans after graduation? In regards to my parents' computer, my family still does not have a computer. That is Louisiana for you, I guess! Have a good week.
