Alums place sixth on “Expedition Impossible”

When The Aggie last spoke with UC Davis alumna Christina Chin in early June, her journey across the nation of Morocco with two of her best friends and fellow UC Davis alumni on the reality series "Expedition Impossible" had yet to air on ABC. Now, a month after the finale of the 10-week show, Chin - as well as her teammates Natalie Smith and Brittany Smith - are back, along with countless stories to tell and lessons learned of their experience.

Behind the scene at the DC

Feeding thousands of hungry UC Davis students three meals a day for nine months is no easy feat, and no one understands that better than General Manager of Resident Dining Brenan Connolly and Resident Dining Executive Chef Andy Burtis. The Aggie spoke with Connolly and Burtis to find out what to look forward to at the dining commons this year.

I taught swim lessons in Okinawa, Japan

How did I spend my summer 2011? I taught swimming lessons by day and explored Japan by night. My summer was filled with beautiful beaches, hot sun, and enticing new cultures and customs - all thanks to a program run through UC Davis called Camp Adventure Youth Services.

I interned at Nickelodeon Animation Studios

Water gun fights, food truck Fridays, parties with chimpanzees, celebrity sightings and a lot of time spent with a certain talking sponge. This summer, I had the opportunity to intern at Nickelodeon Animation Studio in Burbank, CA as an animation development intern.
