My teacher was a part-time vet and our classroomwas loaded with snakes, birds, frogs and turtles. Igot to help care for them and realized that I could majorin animal science and work in a zoo or vet’s office. Myother option is to work with children, but I know that helpingpeople or animals is my calling.”Kaylin’s other passion is basketball. She began playingwhen she was five and is now a player on the ELACWomen’s Basketball team. She loves traveling aroundthe state to play ball. Her favorite trip was to San Francisco,even though the team didn’t win their game, sheloved hanging out with her team mates and coach. Kaylinplans to apply to Cal Poly Pomona and San DiegoState to complete her education.“The best part about ELAC is the athleticdepartment. People are so friendly and helpful.I can talk to them about any problems orquestions I have. The second best thing is myteachers. I was afraid to speak in public untilI took David Guin’s speech class. Now that Iknow how to prepare for a speech I can do itwith confidence.”DANCE STUDIES 826 (UC:CSU) 1.00 UNITS Rpt 3DANCE PERFORMANCE COMPANYThis course develops knowledge and techniques to perform in aprofessional dance company.
