Bears of Berkley – Senior, Shahid Stevenson

Q: What is your favorite school club, activity, or elective?

A: Food and culture, because we get to take food home and I like the teacher. My favorite thing we’ve made was monkey bread.

Q: What’s your favorite memory from being a student at Berkley?

A: Probably when I was walking down the hall and saw some random kid dressed in an inflatable dinosaur costume. It wasn’t even Halloween.

Q: What is one perk of being an upperclassman?

A: I like the general superiority of it- I love being able to boss around underclassmen. I feel like it’s earned because of my underclassman years.

Q: What career path are you interested in pursuing in the future?

A: Game design, because I like to play video games, especially God of War 3. I’d specifically like to design the art for games.

Q: Do you have any words of advice for underclassmen?

A: Just don’t stress. I used to stress a ton and it’s not worth it.

Q: Who is your favorite teacher?

A: I like Mr Cooper. I had him for three years and I appreciate how animated he is.

Q: Which three adjectives best sum up who you are?

A: Goofy, infectious, and funny.

Q: What is your favorite Berkley event?

A: Powderpuff, because I like when activities are competitive. It’s really fun when the student’s get to lead.
