I asked Joe what it's like for him as a campus celebrity, and he told me this: "It's awesome! Everyone knows me even though I don't know them. But I like to make people happy!"

I asked Joe what he usually does during his days and nights. During the days, Joe focuses on schoolwork. At night, you can find Joe working at Blaze Night Club!

What about Joe's friends?

I asked Joe who is friends are! He said that he has plenty of friends, but that a lot of them are a great influence on him. Matt Kaufman and plenty of others (that he can't name) push him to be a better person, myself included. Oh, and we push him to be a better campus celeb, too!

Why go to WVU?

I asked Joe why incoming freshmen should consider WVU, and here was his answer: "There are a lot of events to go to here at WVU, like games, Up All Night, Fall Fest, and so many more–as well as great academics!"

What's the best part about being a Mountaineer?

Joe Boggs

"Everyone in the state dreams of going to college here. There is a lot of pride. You can tell which ones have it and don't— most have it, though! We are number one! Let's go, Mountaineers! Hail West Virginia!"

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break.
