Reactions include how UT San Antonio students would spend the city budget as well as favorite ice cream flavors. With the recent scandal regarding Jimmy Kimmel, students contemplate who they would prefer to have a late night show. 

This week, The Paisano interviews senior cybersecurity and information systems major Nicko Kabongo, freshman chemistry major Alex Taylor, freshman politics and law major Tolamise Oladapo, junior computer science major Matthew Davis and sophomore biomedical engineering major Morgan Garcia. 

What is your favorite ice cream flavor? 

Oladapo contemplated her favorite ice cream flavor amid the controversy with Ben and Jerry’s ice cream; “pecan and cheesecake,” she explains, are her favorites. Kabongo and Taylor prefer classic flavors, such as chocolate and vanilla. 

How would you spend the city’s budget? 

If it were up to Garcia, she would like to spend the city’s budget at Lululemon. In contrast, Kabongo would spend the budget on San Antonio’s uncompleted highways. 

“Finish up those highways. They have been in construction for the last, for how many years it’s been. They definitely need to speed up the process,” Kabongo explained.

What holiday would you get rid of?

Military members will no longer see celebrations of Hispanic Heritage Month, along with many others. Some people would prefer certain holidays be taken away, like Taylor, explaining how she would get rid of Saint Patrick’s day.

“I don’t like how I look in green and I hate getting pinched,” Taylor said.

What is your screen time for TikTok? 

As TikTok is a common app that many people use to doomscroll, students reveal their screen time for the app. Davis confirms his screen time at an alarming seven-and-a-half hours, while others like Oladapo only have 15 minutes.
