Ruben M.
name or nickname: My whole name is Ruben Ivan Marquina
Barrientos y Tanco, but friends in school call me FES (Foreign Exchange
Student).
hometown: I was born in the remote
city of Buenos Aires, Argentina; however, my family is currently living
in a "small place," Mexico City.
major:
Biochemistry Major
favorite movie:
I like
suspense movies like 'Signs', 'The Sixth Sense', and 'The others'.
favorite food:
I love Italian, and Chinese Food. Of course, I don't eat that all the
time, so I will say that Mexican is good, too.

favorite
music/band/etc.: I like Music of Protest (Eric Chapelle, Tracy
Chapman, Mercedes Sosa, and La Raza Chungara). But I also like bands
like Linkin Park, Mana, Babasonicos, Coldplay, and Foo Fighters.
on-campus activities:
International
Club, Student Senate, and Science Club.
what do you like to do OFF-CAMPUS? (hobbies, etc.): I like
outdoors, while spending time with my friends. One time my friends
and I went to the river and jumped from a swing to the water, it was
awesome. I also party a lot.

my
greatest accomplishment? I am the first member of my family
in coming to the United States. It is hard because I carry a lot of
responsibilities, and I want to honor them in everything I do. I want
to graduate and show them that anything is possible in this world. That
is what matters me the most--being persistent in reaching my goal.
why do you like Schreiner?
It is a place where you really get to know the teachers and students
around you, rather than just sitting in a classroom with hundreds of
people who you don't even talk to. It's like your friends become your
family, and the university your house.
