Do you think our athletes will be successful at the Olympic Games in Beijing?

The Campus was buzzing – with Olympic news last week when we hit the JFK Quadrangle to ask the big question. Some of their answers proved to be on target.

	Mark Lewis 3rd Year student (Jamaica) Faculty of Humanities and Education, Mona “From what I’ve been seeing, I think we’ll do well in the sprint events – Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and the Bahamas - and I expect [George] Bovell to do well for Trinidad.”
	Janeal Chichester 3rd Year student (Trinidad) Faculty of Humanities and Education “Judging from the first one, I’m not sure…there is a possibility that George Bovell can pull it off…not sure. I’m being a bit patriotic and having confidence in him.”
	Candace Joefield 3rd year student (Trinidad) Faculty of Humanities and Education “I think we’ll definitely make a mark judging on George’s performance [placing first in his heat] today. I think we can probably expect a silver or bronze...”
	Anecia Samuel 3rd Year student (Trinidad) Faculty of Science and Agriculture, St Augutsine “Honestly I’m not too sure. I feel we will do fairly well in the track and field.”
