What happened to Kevin Griffith from SRV? Seemed like he made a splash last year, but haven't heard anything lately...
I'm in the process of transferring schools. I have decided to pursue a degree in industrial engineering which is not offered at Davis. I.m currently speaking with other schools and will be visiting a few schools over the next few weeks. I will have a decision by end of October and start school in January. For now, just training hard and rooting for my friends and Aggie teammates.
Or you could just do a real major...
Or you could grow up Stein.

Congratulations Kevin, I'm sure you will be successful wherever you end up. Good luck with your college selection and kudos to you for making your academic major your priority!
