 Name:
Hugo
Age: 16
School: Jones Magnet Prep.

Mathematics, Chemistry, Paleontology and Astronomy.
Involvement with P.E.: 2001 Advanced Paleontologist

Quotes: "Never argue with an artist."
Journal Excerpt: "I can't quite imagine what it
was like to live in the age of dinosaurs. Furthermore,
what it was like for the dinosaurs to live in their
own age. What did they think? Did they think? Were they
aware of each others thinking? Did they just eat and
sleep? or did they do a little more? Just imagine: a
Dino Party! Do you think they had social class distinctions?
Well, this is why Dinosaurs and Paleontology interest
me, we don't know much about them, it's a mystery, and
I think it's fun piecing together information to try
and learn more about them…I'm not too sure about a Dino
Party though!"

Age:18
School: Curie High School
Grade: 12th

Paleontology.
Involvement with P.E.: I was a Dinosaur giant Advanced
Paleontologist and Supercroc Delagate.
Future plans: I have been accepted into the University
of Chicago and I hope to go into paleontology someday.
Excerpt from Journal: "My trip to D.C. was so incredibly
awesome! I feel like I learned a lot about unveiling a
new species. I guess it's not all working in dirt! One
of the coolest parts was when we saw the Pandas. I'm glad
I got to- can't help wondering if my grandchildren will
be looking at their bones in a museum one day, with a
sign about how they went extinct because of us. We couldn't
have saved the dinosaurs- but we could do something about
endangered species today."
