“Finding out that Trump won, I have a gut feeling that it’s going to get bad, but compared to how people are visualizing it, I don’t think it’s going to be THAT bad.”

BRIAN OPFER

Freshman, Civil Engineering

“I’m happy with the results. I wasn’t sure what to expect, it was really close. I think if it went the other way it would be a very corrupt next four years.”

CHRISSY YEOMANS

Junior, Finance

“I think it was a surprise, and we need to use it as a learning experience. I think protesting is getting out of hand. It’s not fair to call 60,000,000 people racist, they just voted for him for different reasons than Hillary voters.”

SYDNEY KUKODA

Sophomore, Elementary Education and English

“I am frustrated. I wish this was not the reality we are living in, but I am doing my best to turn all of this negative emotion and this turmoil into something positive.”

CHRISTIAN BENNETT

Junior, Communications

”Without voicing my personal opinion, my main disappointment is how people handled the outcome, especially those who didn’t even vote. It was so close. I’m disappointed in the American voting population.”

STEPHEN SERRULE

Sophomore, Finance

“It’s spitting hatred. We should protest against the GOP and the party system. No one cares about the importance of voting. It’s frustrating. Trump is our president, but we need to protect our people. Hopefully we can go forward with love.”
