Alfino, Mark
Introduction: Originally from the East coast, I studied philosophy at The University of Texas at Austin in the 1980s and have worked at Gonzaga since 1989. I am married and have two adult sons, Christopher and Nicholas. I have taught a wide range of philosophical topics, especially focusing on practical philosophy, including ethics, happiness, and wisdom. Currently, I am working on topics in Philosphy of Culture and the nature of food.
Futch, Janelle
I was born and raised in Southern California. My major is Psychology, but only got to that point after switching my major twice; I was a little indecisive. I have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. Once I finish this semester I'll be done with my undergraduate degree. I plan on moving back to So Cal and taking a year off before I begin applying to Graduate school.
Hoitink, Matt
Originally, I was born in Fort Wayne, IN, and grew up in Everett, WA, and Kennewick, WA. I'm a senior pursuing a B.S. in Biology with a minor in Psychology, and I am on the Gonzaga Men's Rowing team. I really just like learning about and doing many different things. I'll be graduating in the Spring 2017 with zero idea of what I want to do. I've narrowed it down to veterinary school, medical school, and ecology school.
Friedman, Matt
I grew up in Los Angeles, CA with my mom, dad, and 2 brothers and 1 sister. I study English and Psychology here at Gonzaga, and I minor in Philosophy. I read a lot, I play drums, I record and perform music, I like to draw, and I write various pieces of fiction and non-fiction. I currently work as a shophand in the Magnuson Theater scene shop, as a tutor in the writing center, and as the editor and graphic designer of Gonzaga's Reflection journal. All this information leads me to believe that I will be homeless when I graduate from Gonzaga, or living with my parents back in LA if they are gracious enough. Who can say.
Chase, Cameron
I am from Spokane, WA. I have 1 younger brother and come from a very large family. I am an Accounting major and plan to pursue my Master's through Gonzaga's MAcc program during my fifth year. I work in the admissions office where I deal with GPA calculations for applicants and data entry for prospective students. In my spare time I enjoy playing basketball and being social with friends.
