Campus profiles

I've met many interesting students and alumni at UC Irvine. Here are a few favorites:

•  No stopping her: On the skating rink, she's the fierce roller derby player B-Train. In the business arena, she's Bethany Semeiks, with a 'Wicked' apparel company and a newly minted M.B.A. from UCI. Don't get in her way. Photo by Steve Zylius/University Communications. 
• Killer instinct: Neuroscientist James Fallon went searching for the biological hallmarks of a murderer — but the trail led a little too close to home.
• Youngest in his class: For Brandon Gross, 14, being the youngest student at UCI is no big deal.
  
• Meeting the walrus: For rock journalist David Goggin '69, meeting John Lennon was among the highlights of his UCI days.
• Changing the world, one cartoon at a time: Michael Ramirez ’84 collects a second Pulitzer for political cartoons that make people laugh – and think.
