Question: How would having a child affect your participation at UCSC?

(from left to right)

“I already have a lot on my plate, so it would add more pressure to my schoolwork. It would also be a positive thing, because you’re adding another member to your family. Having children is cool and fun when you’re ready for it.”

“I don’t think I would be at UCSC. I think I’d take a leave of absence and go to a community college. I’d get a job and take night classes.”

“My life would revolve around my kid. I’d probably drop out and my world would revolve around it.”

“I guess it depends on how rowdy the kid is. If he’s a rowdy punk-ass, I’d have to drop out. But if he’s a good kid, I guess I could stay.”
