Besides the occasional sighting in the Student Union, the Hallorans don’t see each other much on campus. But they did make a point to have lunch together every Tuesday.

And if Katie or Kristen see one of their parents on campus, they don’t ignore them and quickly walk past, Holly said.

“If they see me in the CSU they just plop down and chat with me,” Holly said. “It’s actually been a really neat experience for all of us.”

Among the four of them, Holly has the best grades, but she doesn’t claim to be the smartest. She just applies herself.

Katie is the most involved on campus, Holly said, having served as president of the Residence Hall Association. She also did campus tours.

Holly plans to work in a high school with minority youth. Jim plans to become a social studies teacher.

Kristen plans to be a doctor. And after Katie graduates this fall, she plans to go on to air-traffic control school.
