20 Questions

Each week for the past year, The Cavalier Daily has asked a student 25 questions, allowing him or her to eliminate five of them. This will be the 21st and final installment of 20 Questions, so here are some of the highlights: a sampling of questions that interviewees were too embarrassed to answer and a few questions for cocktail parties.

Q: Who taught you how to swim and when did you learn?

A: I was on a floaty toy, and I fell in when I was five years old. It was live or die. You might ask what I was doing on a floaty toy when I didn't know how to swim yet. My answer would be: irresponsible parents.
